Tomato Bacon N Pepper Jack Soup Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Blend tomatoes in blender to smooth (or leave larger bits if you like).
• 2. Place in 2 Qt pan.
• 3. Add beef boullion paste to taste. I start with 2 teaspoons.
• 4. Add some milk or half n half.
• 5. Fry up bacon crisp and crumble it into soup.
• 6. Heat until ready to boil and turn down to simmer 15-20 minutes.
• 7. Top with shredded pepperjack when serving.
• 8. You can add toasted croutons as well, but I didn't want the additional carbs.

Steps:

• 1. Saute onion and butter in a large pot until onion is tender.
• 2. Stir in the rest of the ingredients, except milk, hot sauce, cream cheese and shredded cheese. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for about a half hour.
• 3. Stir in milk and hot sauce.
• 4. Heat cream cheese in microwave until very soft. Stir in a little hot soup until blended. Add to soup, along with the shredded cheese, and stir until cheese is melted. Use hand blender to further incorporate cheeses and somewhat breakdown tomatoes.
• 5. Reheat and serve. Note - If you want it a little less spicy, use part cheddar and part pepperjack cheese.
