Not Your Momma's Tomato Soup

I've been feeling a little under the weather the last few days, and on days like that I love turning to cozy food. Although it feels great to open a can of soup and pop it into the microwave, this recipe is just as easy and so much healthier for you. Providing essential vitamins and nutrients to boost immune health and promote a healthy heart.

Tomatoes and sweet potatoes are jam packed with Vitamin C and Beta-Carotene, which is changed into Vitamin A. Vitamin A supports good vision and eye health for a strong immune system. Red bell peppers contain almost 300 percent of your daily Vitamin C intake as well as being a great antioxidant. Tomatoes and red peppers contain lycopene, which gives them there red hue, and strengthens blood vessels.

So, it's basically a bowl full of, "Get this icky feeling out of me!"

It doesn't hurt that it also tastes just like tomato soup, only better!
