Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.

- Heat a cast-iron Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and cook until foaming. Add the crushed red pepper if using and the tomato paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer. Let simmer for 15 minutes.

ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES
This is one of the easiest side dishes I've found. I don't even like most tomatoes, but I love these sweet little cherry tomatoes. This is the basic recipe, but you can also add slivered garlic to the roasting pan and/or chopped fresh basil and Parmesan cheese at the end. Very good with pasta!

ROASTED YELLOW PEAR TOMATO, YELLOW PEPPER AND BASIL BISQUE
I realize not everyone can get those little yellow cherry or pear tomatoes. But if you can ... they are wonderful. A good friend grows them and I do as well, and the plants put out hundreds - trust me. Whole Foods often carries them, as well as many local farmers markets. It is worth trying this soup. Amazing!!

Steps:
- Tomatoes and Peppers -- Add the tomatoes and peppers to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or just sprayed with non stick spray like Pam. Drizzle with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano and toss lightly. Bake in a 400 degree oven until the peppers soften and to start to brown and the tomatoes just begin to pop. About 15-20 minutes.
- Broth Base -- As you roast the vegetables, start the base for the soup. In a large pot, add the olive oil, garlic and onion and saute on medium heat.
- Vegetables -- Add all the tomatoes to the onion mixture and add in 2 cups of the broth, and sherry wine. The peppers, you want to put in a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap. After 10 minutes, the skin should peel right off. Rough chop and add to the rest of the soup.
- Puree and Finish -- Use your immersion blender, or you can use a regular blender, and puree until smooth. I like to leave a little texture to mine. Return to the pot if using a regular blender. Season with salt and pepper, then add any additional broth if desired, and the cream. Bring to medium heat. Right before serving, check for seasoning one more time, and add in the fresh basil. I like lots of fresh ground pepper in mine.
- Enjoy this beautiful creamy pale yellow soup. It is sweet and fresh tasting, and it absolutely delish! I garnish mine with a toasted baguette slice with goat cheese.
Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will give your bisque the best flavor. If you can't find ripe tomatoes, you can roast them in the oven to bring out their sweetness.
- Roast the tomatoes before making the bisque. This will intensify their flavor and make them easier to blend. If you don't have time to roast the tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes instead.
- Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of your bisque, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor. Alternatively, you can make your own vegetable broth.
- Don't overcook the bisque. The bisque should be simmered until it is heated through, but not for too long. Otherwise, the tomatoes will start to break down and the bisque will lose its vibrant color.
- Serve the bisque immediately. Roasted cherry tomato bisque is best when served hot. You can garnish it with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh herbs, or a drizzle of olive oil.
Conclusion:
Roasted cherry tomato bisque is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. With its vibrant color and rich flavor, this bisque is sure to impress your friends and family.
