- Be sure to select ripe papaya, mango, and pineapple for the best flavor.
- If desired, you can substitute the cotija cheese for feta cheese.
- Substitute jicama with cucumber for a lower carb version: Cucumber is a great substitution for jicama as it is lower in carbohydrates, making it a healthier option for those watching their carb intake.
- Substitute orange juice with pineapple juice for a sweeter taste: Pineapple juice is naturally sweeter than orange juice and will add a subtle sweetness to the dish that may be more appealing to certain palates.
Tropical Gazpacho Replace the papaya, pineapple, mango, cucumber and watermelon with 2 cups diced pineapple, 2 cups diced mango, 1 cup diced kiwi, 1 cup diced banana, 1 cup diced papaya and 1 cup diced orange.
Chile-Lime Corn on the Cob: A perfect side dish to complement the Morelian Gazpacho. The sweetness of the corn contrasts with the acidic flavors of the gazpacho, while the chili and lime add a bit of spice and tang.
Grilled Zucchini with Lemon and Mint: This light, refreshing side dish is the perfect accompaniment to the Morelian Gazpacho. The zucchini is grilled to bring out its sweetness, and the lemon and mint add a bright, citrusy flavor to balance out the richness of the gazpacho.
