The soup is made extra creamy with the healthy fat from the heavy cream. The cream also balances the heat and spice of the soup, so even my husband and son, who can’t handle spicy food at all, can still enjoy this soup!
My son also really enjoyed the sour cream drizzle that I used as a garnish on the soup. He also added some Parmesan cheese to his, which was excellent.
If you can’t find jarred or canned roasted bell peppers, then you can roasted fresh ones in the oven until charred, steam them until soft, cool, peel the skins, and then puree them—directions for roasting fresh bell peppers⇓
*How to Roast Fresh Bell Peppers-
Cover a baking sheet with foil. Slice the peppers in half, remove the stems and seeds.
Then flatten them as much as possible. Bake under a broiler for about 15 minutes.
Once you remove them cover them with foil & this will trap heat to steam them for 8 more minutes.
Then peel off any charred parts of the skin (no need to get all skin off).

Christine says
Hi, this sounds delicious but I have to stay away from dairy for a while. Any suggestion on what I could use instead of the heavy cream?
Thanks
Stacey says
Hi Christine, you can replace the heavy cream with full-fat coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
