Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until the skins are charred. Remove from the oven and let them cool. Peel off the skins and remove the seeds.

Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy.

Return the soup to the pot and heat over low heat until warmed through. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
