Roasted Yellow Pepper Soup image

We got this recipe from a good friend and Merchant Marine in New Hampshire. My husband and our two small children liked it so much that I started raising yellow peppers. We enjoy it in the middle of summer or on a cool fall day. -Amy Spurrier Wellsburg, West Virginia

This soup is a waste of time. It's bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out bland. I think I'll add more salt and pepper next time.

This soup is a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use fewer chili peppers.
