Creamy Tomato soup

This is a recipe from Chef AJ. You can find the original recipe on this website, scroll down to the "Cream of Tomato Soup."

Here are the ingredients Chef AJ calls for:

1 lb Roma tomatoes, chopped

2 red bell peppers, chopped

1 clove garlic

6-8 large basil leaves

Juice of one lemon

2 tablespoons sun-dried tomato powder

1/4 tsp chipotle powder

1 cup shelled hemp seeds.

Here's what I used:

1.5 lb fresh garden tomatoes, cut into chunks

~1 cup fresh carrot juice

1 large clove garlic

7 basil leaves

Juice of one lime

ground up sun-dried tomatoes

1/8 tsp chipotle powder

1/2 cup shelled hemp seeds (raw cashews would work too)

I didn't have any red bell peppers so I thought, what flavor does that add? sweetness. so maybe carrot juice would be okay. but that might be too liquidy so add some more tomatoes. I didn't have a lemon so used a lime. You just put all the ingredients into the blender. Chef AJ says, leave out the hemp seeds and let it blend until it gets warm, then add the hemp seeds. I just blended it all and then heated it on the stove some more. It has a unique flavor. Housemate really liked it. She'll have the leftovers for dinner tomorrow night. I should have taken a picture.
