• Make up the vegetable stock adding the tomato puree, sundried tomato paste & the chilli flakes. Mix well and then add to the sauteed celery. Remove from the heat.
• When the baked vegetables are ready remove the peel from the onion & garlic cloves roughly chop them & add them to the pan along with the plum tomtoes. Place back on to a low to medium heat & using a hand blender blend until the soup is smooth.

ROASTED RED PEPPER TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• To roast the red peppers, turn the oven on to broil.
• Cut your peppers in half and remove the seeds then smash each half down on a baking tray so they lay flat, with the skins facing up.
• Broil the peppers until they're starting to blacken, approximately 15-20 minutes. Once they're done remove from the oven and let cool until you can handle them. Once cooled enough to handle, peel off the heavily blackened bits of skin and discard. You don't need to get every little bit of skin off but the black parts should come off fairly easily.
• Add the peppers to a blender with the rest of the ingredients, starting with 1/2 cup vegetable broth and adding more if needed to adjust the thickness of the soup to your preference.
• Blend all of the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
• If you're serving right away, pour the contents into a pot on the stovetop and bring to a light simmer to heat through or heat by the bowl in the microwave as needed. If you're making in advance, transfer to a container and store in the fridge.

BELL PEPPER AND TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the red onion and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, cayenne, garlic, bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer.
• Add bell pepper and tomatoes, bring the mixture back to a simmer and cook until the potatoes and vegetables are tender, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat, discard the bay leaf and let cool at least 5 minutes. Carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill the blender more than halfway full).
• Reheat the soup and adjust the consistency with water if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot with a sprinkle of parsley and almonds and a drizzle of oil.

HEALING ROASTED TOMATO AND RED PEPPER SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
• TOMATOES/ONION/GARLIC:
• If using larger tomatoes, cut them into fourths.
• Place the tomatoes and onion on a large rimmed baking sheet (or divide into two smaller baking sheets if too close together). Toss with the olive oil and the salt and spread out evenly.
• Place the garlic cloves on a large piece of tin foil and drizzle with a little oil. Wrap the garlic up tightly so that the cloves are all laying flat. Place the garlic on the baking sheet.
• Roast everything for 20 to 22 minutes, flipping halfway through. Everything should be tender and the tomatoes will have released their juices.
• RED PEPPERS:
• While the tomatoes are roasting start roasting the peppers.
• Gas Stove method: Turn two gas burners on high. Place a red pepper on each gas burner and allow the skin to char, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Use tongs to rotate the pepper so each side is really black and blistered (see picture). You may see the skin catch on fire every once in awhile.That's okay, it usually goes out quickly. Don't walk away from the peppers.
• Broiler Method: Turn on your broiler. If you don 't have a broiler that is separate from your oven then you will need to wait until the tomatoes are done roasting. Place the peppers on a rimmed baking sheet and place them as close to the broiler as you can. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until all the sides are well charred.
• Once the peppers are charred place them in a large mixing bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow the steam to help loosen the skin, about 5 minutes.
• Use a paper towel to peel off most of the blackened skin from the red pepper. Make sure to leave behind some char as it adds that smoky flavor. I actually like to leave a lot of the char on the pepper.
• Cut the bell pepper, removing the core and seeds.
• BLEND:
• Allow the roasted tomatoes to cool slightly. Add all ingredients to your blender, including the red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, and olive oil, working in batches so that the blender is only halfway full at a time. Blend until smooth.
• Taste and adjust seasoning as needed: more salt to bring out the flavor, or a little red wine vinegar for more tang, or red pepper flakes for a little more heat.
• If the soup has cooled too much you may need to reheat it before serving.
• Serve with gluten free stove top croutons, other gluten free bread, or gluten free grilled cheese sandwich, if desired. Also delicious on its own. Enjoy and be healed my friends!

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

ROASTED TOMATO AND RED PEPPER SOUP

Steps:

• You'll need 2 cups of roasted tomato sauce for this recipe. Preheat the oven to 400°F and place the tomatoes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. Nestle the two halves of garlic and the fresh herbs in with the tomatoes, drizzle with olive oil, season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Transfer the tomatoes and a few of the roasted garlic cloves (squeeze them from the papery shells) to a blender and blitz until smooth. Pour the tomato sauce into a large sauce pot. Add the half onion and butter, bring to medium heat, and cook for 20 minutes or so while the peppers are roasting.
• If using red peppers that are already roasted, skip this step. If not, raise the oven temperature to 425°F. Line the baking sheet with fresh foil and place the peppers on the sheet. Bake the peppers for 30 minutes or until puffed and blistered. Set aside until cool enough to handle then peel the papery skin from the pepper and discard along with the stems, seeds, and membrane.
• Add the roasted tomato sauce (and a few peels of the onion if you'd like) to the blender canister along with the roasted red pepper. Cover the canister with the lid but be sure to remove the top center plug since the soup is hot and you don't want it to explode when you blend. Cover the lid with a dishtowel and blitz until smooth. Add the tomato and pepper mixture back to the pot and stir in the milk. Heat until warmed through and season with more salt and pepper to taste. If you like your soup thinner, add more milk.
