Healthy double soup: Red pepper and yellow pepper soups – mixed pepper soup recipe
This double pepper soup is one of those recipes that looks absolutely amazing. Not only that but it is actually really easy to make too. I have made it a few times.
When friends come over it always looks amazing and tastes so good too so very worth a try!
If you prefer you could use the recipe to instead make yellow pepper soup or red pepper soup if you don’t fancy combining them for the double soup.

Soup making tips
If you enjoy soup then these tips could help you.
Use reduced or yellow sticker vegetables where you can. You won’t taste any difference but it will save money.
If you use a soup maker remember to defrost any frozen vegetables first as it works much more smoothly that way.
For this double pepper soup recipe, be sure to rinse out the soup maker between the red pepper soup and yellow pepper soup for the best results.
Soup is a great snack on cold winter evenings and could be a good alternative to other comfort foods.
If you always make a little extra and freeze some you could have a choice in the freezer every time you need a snack or a bit of warmth.
Soup is a great way to get extra vegetables into your diet. Why not add a mug of soup to a meal that doesn’t have vegetables as an alternative to a side portion of vegetables for a change?

Enjoying this double soup on a diet
This is a really healthy soup, so if you follow Slimming World, Weight Watchers (WW), Noom or any other weight loss plan this is a great recipe to try.
It is, of course, important to check yourself for any plan you follow and remember all nutritional information and ingredients are found in the recipe card below.
How to make this double pepper soup on a budget
This can be an expensive soup to make but if you buy the peppers reduced or have a few that need using up in the fridge then it is a really easy meal to make and impressive too!
Freezing any chopped peppers that you have left over is a great way to then turn them into this soup.

Freezing the double pepper soup
This soup freezes really well but obviously, you need to freeze each colour separately. It is easy to reheat and then pour as per the recipe.
As with any meal you pop in the freezer, don’t forget to label it, unless you fancy a game of freezer roulette!

I made this and loved it – I think my peppers were a little bitter, so added a bit more salt. I guess usually the stock would have enough in. you’re right that it was impressive to look at – to taste, too!
I love how this looks, I don't think I've ever seen a soup like this before! It sounds really simple too so I'll definitely give it a go.
What a lovely sounding and looking recipe! Great for the upcoming colder months.
