Roasted Red Pepper and Cannellini Soup

October 24, 2015

Roasted Red Pepper and Cannellini Soup - vegan, plant based, gluten free, refined sugar free- heavenlynnhealthy.comThis roasted red pepper and cannellini soup is roasted one of my favorite comfort foods. It’s hands down one of those soups that I could eat every day, and that I always have the ingredients for stocked at home.  There’s something about the taste of roasted red peppers that reminds me of vacation and happiness. I have to admit that I am not the biggest fan of raw red peppers. I mean, I’d eat them and I don’t mind them, but they are not my favorite vegetable to nibble on. When roasted, they turn into one of my favorite things, though. When turned into a soup they almost imitate the taste of a good old tomato soup – with a much better and more intense flavor. The cannellini beans add a natural creaminess to the soup, as well as a good amount of plant protein. The whole soup is just a delicious and creamy combination of flavors and textures, that I am sure you’ll love as much as I do. Roasted Red Pepper and Cannellini Soup - vegan, plant based, gluten free, refined sugar free- heavenlynnhealthy.comOf course this soup isn’t just super delicious, it’s also extremely good for your health. Peppers are one of the best sources of vitamin C, in fact, one raw pepper contains more than 200% of the daily recommended intake. That’s more than twice as much as oranges contain.
Like all beans, cannellini beans are a great source of dietary fiber, which provides us with long lasting energy. They are also an amazing source of antioxidants, which help protect our body form free radicals that could damage our cells and lead to chronic diseases like cancer.

    Love this soup, Lynn. The combination of the smoky roasted red peppers with cannellini sounds great. I’ve made a tomato and cannellini soup before but think that the roasted red peppers are a great alternative. Love all the spices you’ve added also. Looking forward to trying this!

      Thank you so much Geraldine! I am such a huge fan of roasted red peppers, but roasted tomatoes must taste delicious too. Maybe one should combine the two??
      Have a wonderful week!

    This soup is delicious and easy to make, except for one problem. For the cooks like me who do not use Celsius when we cook, could you please add that the peppers have to cook at 400 degrees, not 200. It took me a hour to figure this out.. Your soup is amazing though

    I think the soup was good and really easy to make .
    I noticed the peppers took longer to cook .
    I think the soup was over powered with basil .
    I would recommend using less basil to have a more flavor taste .I would make it again though !
