"I live on good soup, not on fine words."
-Moliere, French playwright
Soup nights are the best. In the winter, a hearty soup like this with a salad is all you need to fill up and be warm. A cool Gazpacho or fruit soup in the summer is the perfect way to chill out.

This recipe can easily be multiplied and makes good leftovers.
Place the watermelon, tomatoes, lime juice, red pepper, salt and pepper in a blender. Puree.
Pour the soup into a tall pitcher. Place in the freezer. As the soup cools it will form two layers. At the top will be a thicker, dark red soup and below that a clearer watery liquid.
Using a small measuring cup or a turkey baster, gently remove as much of the darker, thicker soup as you can and discard the watery liquid.
Serve well chilled and topped with 1 teaspoon of olive oil (flavored oil works great) and the basil.
