Roasting Roma tomatoes with onions and a hint of red bell pepper gives this chicken broth-based tomato soup the ultimate flavor boost without a drop of cream.
Adjust the spices to suit your individual likes. You may also substitute cream for part of the half-and-half. Chicken stock will work if you can't get lobster stock.
I love this recipe because it uses fresh, sweet red bell peppers, as opposed to roasted red peppers. It's full of other fresh vegetables and thyme, too, and it freezes exceptionally well. Rice is used...

Not too spicy, warm and healthy. Skip the sausage, add canned beans, and use vegetable stock to make it vegetarian. Serve with sourdough bread and more salsa as desired.
I like to make this soup as a starter when I have guests. It can easily be made in advance, but only add creme fraiche, orange juice, and orange zest right before serving.
A classic recipe for 'Jewish Penicillin!' Add matzo balls if you wish, or just serve with noodles, fresh bread, or biscuits. This soup is even better reheated the next day!
Yummy simple soup without too much heat, excellent for a wintery starter to a dinner party. The spice works wonderfully with the sweetness of the parsnips. Serve with crusty white bread and butter.
This recipe has been in our family for generations. Some family members say it started with our great-great-grandmother Bubbie Rose. My husband, her great-great-grandson, has put his own twist on it by...
