Soup was amazing. I threw in some extra chicken, mushrooms, and rice I had in the kitchen because my fiance wont eat anything without meat in it. He loved it!

Great tasting broth, but too many onions, and the garlic needed to be sauteed longer. It was still hard. So, I would recommend cutting down on the onions, and sauteeing the garlic longer.

Very yummy! This was my first attempt at roasting peppers and it was very easy. If you like a chunkier soup, you may add some diced or stewed tomatoes along with the crushed tomatoes. Pair with some crusty multi-grain bread with garlic and sea salt and you have a satisfying meal. I will make this again.

Yummy!
This soup was SO good. I ate if for lunch 5 days in a row, and even my boyfriend ate it. He NEVER eats the healthy soups I make! (Although, he added cheese). I LOVE the aroma of the roasted red peppers when I make them, and the taste of the soup was SO good. It was nice to have a different flavor, a bit of sweetness.

Awesome soup
I used tomatoes and peppers from my garden ~ the flavor was amazing. The adjustments I made were using 4 cups peeled, seeded, chopped tomatoes and 1-1/2 tablespoons basil in place of the canned tomatoes. I only used one 14 ounce can or organic chicken broth, as the tomatoes provided the rest of the liquid. A great recipe! Thanks.
