ingredients
1 cup fresh orange juice
3 slices good white bread, torn into chunks
2 medium cucumbers, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, cored, seeded and coarsely chopped
1/2 medium red onion, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 pounds ripe tomatoes, peeled and seeded
1 clove garlic, peeled
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large orange, peeled, sectioned, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup tomato juice (optional)
paper-thin orange slices, for garnish
directions
Combine the orange juice and bread in a blender or food processor, and let it soak for a few minutes. Working in batches if necessary, add half the cucumbers, half the bell pepper, half the onion and all of the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper to the blender. Process until very smooth. Strain if desired.
Pour the mixture into a 2-quart container and add the remaining cucumber, bell pepper, and onion and the orange. Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours or as long as 24 hours for the flavors to blend.
Before serving, taste for seasoning and check for consistency; add some or all of the tomato juice if you'd like it thinner. Ladle the soup into chilled bowls, and float 1 or more orange slices on top.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
