Recipe developer and wellness coach Miriam Hahn created this wonderful dish, and she can't say enough great things about it ... and to be honest — neither can we! "My favorite thing about this recipe is it how fresh busting with flavor it is. It is like eating a homemade salsa with extra veggies! I love soup in general but eating a raw soup is great because you get the raw enzymes that can be lost in cooking," Hahn raves.

Gather the ingredients

You first need to list all the necessary ingredients it takes to throw this dish together and then take a trip to the store. For starters, you will need a few Roma tomatoes that you will deseed and dice. In addition, you will need to grab few more items from the produce section, including an English cucumber, an orange bell pepper, a jalapeño, garlic clove, red onion, and cilantro, all of which you'll need to chop and dice.
Moving on, be sure to pick up a lime that you'll zest. The dish also requires a few sauces, including Worcestershire and Tabasco. In addition, you will need some salt, pepper, apple cider vinegar, and tomato juice. Then, it's time to begin.
Combine the veggies in a bowl

Now that you have all of your ingredients purchased and in front of you, it's time to get this cooking party started. Take out a large bowl and get ready to toss in a few ingredients. The first thing you can throw in is the Roma tomatoes — these should be diced and seeded ahead of time. At this time, you can also toss in the diced onion, cucumber, bell pepper, and jalapeño. "For cutting the veggies, I typically use an onion chopper for onion. The other ones, I do a rough chop, then take my big chef's knife and run it over, up and down over a big clump of the veggies," Hahn says.
The last two things you need to add are the garlic and cilantro, minced and chopped respectively.
Add the wet ingredients

By now, your bowl of ingredients should be starting to get pretty packed, but there are still a few things that you will need to add.
