1. Peel, core, and quarter the tomatoes.
2. Place the green pepper in a food processor and process for a few seconds. Add the tomatoes, garlic, bread, olive oil and vinegar, process again. Add the tomato juice, sugar, salt, and pepper and process.
3.The mixture should be thick but not too heavy. Continue processing until it's the right consistency. If you's like pour liquid through a sieve. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, not longer than 12 hours.
4. Place each garnish on a separate dish or spoon out the soup first and spoon garnish on top of each. Enjoy!
