Roasted Red Pepper SoupI made this for dinner tonight because I am trying to clear out my cupboards of things that have remained there for the last 6 months! A lot of this stuff I really didn’t measure out, so the following are estimates
Ingredients

  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 - 2 garlic cloves (depending on how garlicy you like it), minced
  • 1 7.25 oz jar of sun-dried red peppers
  • 1 cup milk (I only use skim, but it’s your preference)
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 - 2 tsp sea salt (once again, based on your personal tastes)
  • 1 family size can of tomato soup (or make yours from scratch)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tsp honey

Directions

  1. Place the olive oil in a sauce pot and once it it heated, add the garlic to saute.
  2. While the oil is heating, place the peppers, milk, cayenne pepper and salt into a food processor and blend until smooth.
  3. Once the garlic has sauteed, add the can of tomato soup, then the red pepper mix and stir. Add bay leaves.
  4. Heat on medium low heat for 7 - 9 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Remove bay leaves and stir in honey.
  6. Serve hot, preferably with a nice sharp cheddar and muenster grilled cheese!
