With the metal blad ein place, add the onion to the beaker. Process, turning on and off rapidly, until finely chopped, about 4 or 5 seconds. Transfer onion to a large bowl. Repeat with cucumbers, then green peppers, and then 5 of the tomatoes. Transfer all to the large bowl. Process remaining tomato with garlic, V-8, olive oil, and chili powder until a smooth liquid is formed. Combine with chopped vegetables and chill in a covered container. Before serving, taste for salt. If texture is too thick, add more V-8, or a combination of V-8 and beef bouillon. Makes 1 1/2 quarts. NOTE: Make this soup at least a couple hours before serving, so the flavors have a chance to combine. Overnight is even better. NOTES : Delicious. Ive adapted this over the years - little or no olive oil, but more V-8 or Clamato juice - or a combination (1/2 and 1/2) of V-8 and beef bouillon . It tastes terrific with seasoned croutons. Its a very nice thing to have in the refrigerator during the heat of the summer.
