Ingredients
  

  • 200 gram Red bell pepper (approx 2 bell peppers) 40 calories
  • 40 gram Onion 16 calories
  • 1 clove Garlic 4 calories
  • 1.25 cup Chicken Stock 13 calories

Method
 

  1. Remove the seeds from the bell pepper. Chop the bell pepper, onion, and garlic.
  2. Sauté the bell pepper, onion, and garlic in a pot for 10 min. I sauté mine in water, but you can use non-stick spray, butter, or oil.
  3. Add chicken stock and let simmer for 30 minutes.
  4. Use an immersion blender or heat-safe blender to puree the soup. Add salt and pepper to taste. 
  5. Serve with a tablespoon of Greek yogurt or sour cream stirred in. Top with fresh cilantro, chopped green onions, cheese, croutons, or bacon.
