Ingredients

    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 garlic clove, minced (or 1 tsp jarred minced garlic)
    12 ounces vegetable broth
    1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano, with juice
    1 (7 ounce) jar roasted bell peppers, drained (rinse if packed in oil)
    1 teaspoon Mrs. Dash table blend
    1 teaspoon dried Thyme
    2 ounces reduced fat cream cheese


Directions

Makes 3 servings, 1 cup each

Combine the onion, garlic and 1/2 cup of the vegetable broth in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broth evaporates and the onions start to caramelize. (Do not burn or the onion will have a bitter flavor.) Add the remaining broth, tomatoes with their juice, peppers, and seasonings. Simmer, uncovered for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
Transfer 1/2 the soup to a food processor or blender and add half the cream cheese. Process until slightly chunky. Repeat with the other half of the soup.
