I found this recipe in an effort to use our over-abundance of cherry tomatoes from the garden. It's a great late summer/early fall soup that's easy to make and tastes wonderful!
3. Let roast for between 30 and 50 minutes, or until the peppers and onions are softened and the tomatoes are wilted and everything is starting to brown up a bit as well.
4. Take all the vegetables and put into a blender with a bit of chicken stock. Blend until smooth.
Add in a couple of good sized glugs of cream and thin down with more chicken stock until you reach your desired consistency.
5. Bring it a simmer and then season with salt and pepper to taste. (Note from the recipe's author: It's always a good idea to season food at its serving temperature. Things can taste more or less sweet/salty, depending on the temperature at which they are consumed!)
