Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 lb cooked shrimp or 1/2 lb raw shrimp, tails removed, cut in pieces
2 cups fat-free half-and-half
1 cup no-salt-added tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (or to taste)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon butter
1/4 cup grated fresh parmesan cheese

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add red pepper and onion; saute on low heat until soft, 15 to 20 minute, stirring occasionally.
Add shrimp, half-and-half, tomato sauce, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Add butter.
Put half of hot mixture in a blender and carefully process at high speed about 10 to 15 seconds, or until no large pieces remain. Transfer bisque into soup bowls and repeat with remaining. (I would just use a stick blender).
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Optional garnish - fresh herbs and additional shrimp.
