Easy, one-pot, roasted red pepper and tomato soup with coconut milk. It's vegan and gluten-free, so all your friends and family can enjoy a cozy bowl of soup.
Add the onion, bell pepper, garlic, tomatoes, and half of a cup of water to a dutch oven.
Bake for 40 minutes.
Place pot on top of the stove on medium/low heat (just enough for it to reach a simmer).
Add in remaining water, coconut milk, basil, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Blend soup using an immersion blender, until ingredients are fully combined and smooth.(Pro Tip: If the soup tastes a little sour, add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda. It will bubble and fizz. Stir until this reaction stops, and taste again. Repeat until the sour taste is gone. If you have done this a few times and still find it a bit sour, you can add some brown sugar 1 teaspoon at a time.)
Simmer for a few minutes and enjoy with your favorite bread or vegan grilled cheese.

Notes
Storage TipsLet the soup cool a bit before pouring any leftovers into an airtight container. I always recommend using glass whenever possible.
Fridge: Store this creamy roasted tomato red pepper soup in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Freezer: This soup is not freezer-friendly. I have never had luck freezing recipes that contain coconut milk or cream. They don't taste right after they are thawed and reheated.
Reheat: Pour soup into a small saucepan to reheat it on the stove. Alternatively, you can pour this roasted tomato and pepper soup.
