Ingredients

Sandwich

• Ciabatta bread
• Brie
• Shaved turkey
• Bacon
• Arugula
• Red onion
• Red pepper jelly
• Mayonnaise

Roasted Red Pepper

• 6 red peppers
• 1 block of feta
• 2 bulbs of garlic
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• ½ diced onion
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• ½ cup white wine
• 3 tbsp fresh basil
• ½ tsp dried oregano
• 2 cups vegetable broth + more for desired thickness
• Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

Soup

1. Preheat the oven to 400F and slice the bulbs of garlic and wrap in tin foil. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until softened.
2. Halve the peppers and add to a foil lined baking sheet with a block of feta. Broil until they’re blackened and the feta is softened. (Approx. 15 minutes)
3. Remove the peppers and add to a bowl and cover with a plate or plastic wrap to allow them to steam for 10 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, heat a medium pot on medium heat and add butter and olive oil. Add onion and saute for 5-7 minutes or until translucent, season with salt & pepper. Add oregano, grated garlic, and tomato paste and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Add wine to deglaze and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Remove the skin from the peppers and add the peppers into a blender with the feta, onion mixture, a few leaves of fresh basil, roasted garlic and broth. Blend until smooth.
6. Return soup to pot and simmer on medium low and add any extra salt & pepper if needed. Serve warm :)

Sandwich

1. Toast bread, add mayo to one side and red pepper jelly to the other.
2. Add turkey, and sliced brie, and broil in the oven until melty.
3. Lastly, add the bacon and arugula (which I tossed in a little olive oil, lemon and a sprinkle of salt and added a few slices of red onion.)
