Keto Menu : Gazpacho (Puerto Rican Salt Cod Salad)
All my life, gazpacho has been a light & refreshing salad composed of flaky salt cod (bacalao), avocado, tomato, onion and olive oil. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw the soup. Puerto Rican gazpacho is a childhood favorite of mine, and is perfect for those nights when you’re just too tired to really cook. This dish is a simple assembly-style dish.

The hardest part is waiting patiently to purge the salt cod of its salty coat. Another bonus, this dish is deliciously healthy and light, so feel free to have a couple servings! It’s perfect by itself, or you can serve it alongside rice, or inside a soft baked roll or pita pocket for a delish and portable meal option. Gazpacho is also a great option for Lent!

1/3 cup white or red onion finely chopped
1 Florida avocado peeled and chopped into cubes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon vinegar

Rinse off the salt from the bacalao and soak overnight in water, changing the water 3 times. Place the bacalao into a pot of cold water, and bring to a boil.
As soon as the liquid comes to a boil, drain the salt cod and let it cool.
Once it's cooled, break the salt cod into big flakes and place in a bowl. Make sure to check for any stray bones.
Stir the chopped avocado, onion, tomato, olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and combine.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
