Roasted Red Pepper Soup

This is an easy soup I adapted from a couple of sources and it's easy to play around with and use in different ways.

Red Peppers
Onion, chopped
Garlic
Basil, chopped/shredded
Broth/Stock
Salt, Pepper
Olive oil
Optional: broth

Broil the peppers, turning until brown on all sides. Let cool, then peel and seed and cut into strips. Warm olive oil in a pot and add chopped onion. When the onion is transparent add the peppers, garlic, broth and spices. Bring to a boil then simmer for 10-15 minutes. Pour soup into blender and give it a quick blend. Return to pot and serve!

Serving options:
Add cheese before serving
Chill in fridge and serve cold with some sour cream
