Roasted Red Pepper & Tomato Bisque with Skillet Croutons

this …

This!! Confession...

This may be the best recipe that I have ever posted. Michael and I went to a fairly new restaurant in our area a few weeks ago and I ordered their red pepper and tomato soup and the rest is history! From the moment I took the first bite I knew that I was going to be making my own.

This bisque is the perfect comfort meal. One pot and 30 minutes is all you need for the coziest meal of your life. I'm talking put on your pjs, turn on The Crown and don't look back! The creamy consistency combined with the goodness of the red peppers makes me wish for more snow days! Recipe card is below.
