Oh yes! I use all these flavors together only thicker as a pasta sauce. You will love it!

Another vote yes. I’ve made tomato soup with red pepper and it’s very good.
To get more flavor, sauté or roast the peppers before adding then to the soup.

It should work great. I frequently make batches of tomato sauce with the addition of roasted peppers.

This also follows the concept of "what grows together goes together" since both tomatoes and peppers were native New World crops (Mexico & Central America).

Hasn’t heard that, thanks so much

Knowing the indigenous regions of food ingredients is often very helpful in finding natural affinities and pairings as cooks hundreds (sometimes thousands) of years ago found preparations that compliment and marry those components well.

I think that it would work really well and would add depth and complexity to the soup. I am a big fan of roasted peppers / tomato combo.

Thank you! There is a roasted red pepper tomato soup by Pacific Foods and I would love to try to emulate it. This came close
