Have you ever tried making a soup from watermelon? It was never on our list of things to do, however now that we've tried it we are fans. We recommend using a Vitamix if you have one, it will make the soup super smooth. Use a food processor for a thicker soup.
Watermelon Chipotle Gazpacho

Either half a large watermelon or one medium watermelon (at least 12 cups)
