Red Pepper Soup is a true delight that I recommend to everyone. It is tasty, warming and has a lovely pepper hit. Also it is high in Vitamins A and C which are good for the old body. Anything that starts with garlic, pepper and onions is going to be good. However a soup can be made in advance and is portable in a flask.
Red Pepper Soup
What a lovely way to get warmed up. A bowl of warm Red Pepper Soup with bread is a pure delight that is hard to beat.
