Tomato and Red Pepper Soup

I eat soups regularly but I haven’t shared a recipe before as I tend to just throw lots of vegetables into my soup-maker and hope for the best. Recently I’ve been asked to share more dinner recipes, including soup, so I thought I’d post my favourite one! Tomato and red pepper soup. It’s so rich and flavour-some yet it doesn’t require too much effort to make.

Unfortunately the first time I had this, I suffered from a lot of bloating, indigestion and excess wind which was very painful. I soon learnt that tomatoes are high FODMAP in larger serves (hence why you must have a small portion of this soup, despite how tasty it is!) and that the fructose content doubles when you roast or dry out the tomato (fascinating… Yet irritating!) If you are sensitive to this, then please do not roast the tomatoes, you can simply add them to the pan with the stock and simmer before adding the roasted red peppers.

Tomato and Red Pepper Soup

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 800 g Tomato (plum tomatoes work best) approx 10 tomatoes
  • 2 Sticks of celery
  • 2 Red peppers (deseeded & cut into slices)
  • 1 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Garlic-infused oil
  • 15 g Basil
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 400 ml Vegetable stock (I used the Low FODMAP Massel vegetable stock cube)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 160 degrees or gas mark 3. 
  • In a large roasting tray, place the tomato slices in halves (cut side facing upwards), and slices of red peppers (skin-side up). IMPORTANT! As above, if you are particularly intolerant to fructose, do not roast the tomatoes as this increases the FODMAP content. They can be cooked in a pan a little later. 
  • Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, garlic-infused oil, caster sugar, salt and pepper, then place in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Add the cooked tomatoes and red peppers to a pan along with the vegetable stock, celery and basil, and blend until smooth.
  • Put the soup through a sieve (to remove any skin and tomato seeds), heat up slightly on the hob and serve with gluten free bread. 

This soup is the perfect winter-warmer, and goes really well with crusty white gluten free bread. I’d personally recommend the Schar white ciabatta rolls, white baguettes or the new Marks & Spencer Bake at Home Bread.

Let me know if you make this soup, I love to see you making my recipes over on my Instagram. I’m also on Facebook and Twitter too if you prefer to follow me there.

Monday night low FODMAP chicken fajitas with glute Monday night low FODMAP chicken fajitas with gluten free wraps. I love the spice recipe for this. It’s so tasty with a little kick (reduce cayenne pepper if you struggle with spice). It can be found on my blog or in my recipe e-book (link in bio). I served the spiced chicken and peppers with iceberg lettuce, grated cheese and a little creme fraiche. I am just loving gluten free wraps at the moment, these @sainsburys free from ones are the best I’ve found. They don’t rip or leave a strange aftertaste (note - they include a range of 8 different flours including chickpea, as well as pea protein, but small amounts). Have you had wraps lately? 🌮I’m definitely going to be folding some more this week! 😂

It’s gluten free and lactose free. I served it with a carrot and swede mash, tenderstem broccoli, green beans and spring greens. I’m trying to up my fibre intake after a bout of IBS-C (I alternate between C and D) so I’m carefully adding more low FODMAP fruit and vegetables into my diet. What fruit and veg do you usually eat?

I always have a sausage and egg McMuffin (without the muffin) and use the gluten, garlic and onion free hash browns to sandwich it all in. Absolute heaven! I literally love their hash browns, they’re the only ones I can have! If you haven’t tried this yet, then you really need to!! My thoughts go out to everyone affected by all the confusing messages regarding schools today, particularly primary school staff. I know it’s hard but try and enjoy your last day off... I think I will be baking, cleaning and watching Cobra Kai 🐍
Spaghetti bolognese for dinner using the recipe fr Spaghetti bolognese for dinner using the recipe from my e-book ‘A Beginner’s Guide to the Low FODMAP Diet’.

New Year’s Eve is all about a platter of our fav New Year’s Eve is all about a platter of our favourite foods including this homemade mackerel pate. This recipe is the annual Christmas Day starter and has been under lock and key for the 8 years I’ve had Christmas dinner with my boyfriend’s family. Old Pa Cowan has finally shared it with me just in time for the NY celebrations, I feel honoured! Let me know if you’d like the recipe too. It contains lactose so it’s only suitable for once you have passed reintroduction. I hope you all have a lovely evening however you’re choosing to spend it. We have a pile of board games to play, nibbles on hand and lots of gin to try! Happy New Year🍸
Crisp and fluffy roast potatoes, the highlight of Crisp and fluffy roast potatoes, the highlight of any roast dinner. Having spent the past couple of months perfecting them, I’m so pleased to share this foolproof recipe which has been a Sunday roast game changer.

Let me know if you give them a try!
Happy Christmas!! I hope you all had a lovely day Happy Christmas!! I hope you all had a lovely day celebrating yesterday. It was a little different for us it but it was so lovely to enjoy lots of delicious food, see family and exchange gifts after this strange and difficult year.

What will you be doing? 🎄❄️🎅🏼☃️🦌
AD Today I was challenged to create some pancake a AD Today I was challenged to create some pancake art for @rspcaassured_official #12daysofchristmaschallenges. It was so much fun! It’s the first time trying anything like it and I managed to make a range of gluten free pancakes that resemble a Christmas tree, snowman and rudolph! Check out my stories to see how I made them. RSPCA assured products are easy to recognise by their logo and ensure farm animals are given plenty of space to move around, a good diet, core table bedding and activities to do. This means a lot to me as I think it’s important to know where food comes from and the welfare of the animals involved. I picked mine up in Sainsbury's. Now it’s your turn, send me or tag me in your pancake art, I’d love to see what you make! #BakeItRSPCAAssured
Gingerbread cupcakes! Today I made a huge batch of Gingerbread cupcakes! Today I made a huge batch of gingerbread men, and a batch of gingerbread cupcakes to add them to. Not only is ginger tummy friendly, it tastes so good too! The recipe for these will be on my website very soon!  What are you baking this week?🧁
