1 1/4 cup low-sodum tomato juice
1/2 lb fresh tomato, (any variety), cored and coarsely chopped

2 mini English cucumbers, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp sherry, or red wine vinegar
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream

Place garlic in a blender and pulse to mince. Add tomato juice and blend until smooth. Add tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, oil, salt and vinegar, and blend until smooth. If you have a bit of extra time, transfer to a lidded container and chill in freezer for 15-30 minutes.
