In a medium sized bowl, roughly tear up bread and add enough water to soak all the bread for 10 minutes.
Squeeze out any excess water from the bread and add all the chopped vegetables, garlic and drizzle everything with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Give everything a good mix so all the flavors are combined and let mixture sit for at least 20 minutes.
Add mixture to a food processor or blender and blend until pureed well and there are no large pieces left over.
Add a few dashes of red wine vinegar, taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
Pour the gazpacho through a fine mesh strainer and use a spoon to press onto the pulp to get as much liquid out as possible.
Chill gazpacho for at least 1 hour. Then pour smooth gazpacho into bowls and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and finely chopped tomatoes, peppers and onion.
Gazpacho can be made ahead of time up to 3 days in advance.
You can freeze gazpacho easily. When ready to thaw and serve, it may contain a bit more water, so just pulse through a food processor a few times before serving.
