This was really awsome wanted to try out a soup to go with our Thanksgiving meal so I made a small batch for dinner one night. WOW!!! Lowed the low fat quality, did not put the soup in a blender just gave it a good stir and served it! Sauted a few extra shrimp to add on top.

This recipe was totally awesome. I added a large clove of chopped garlic. I'll definitely make it again soon, and will double the recipe.

Great recipe! I'm on a low-fat diet and I substituted the Half & Half with skim milk and skipped the butter - Still delicious!

Just barely acceptable--but only because it's a low fat recipe. It's sweet, and really wasn't the taste I was expecting from a bisque. The consistency of the soup is almost like vomit, and the shrimp bits are not adequately suspended in the soup, so they kind of settle to the bottom. The flavor is just okay. Extra parmesan cheese seems to help. I probably won't be making this recipe again.

I love this recipe and make it a few times each month. These are my suggested modifications: Add an extra half red pepper and about one to two cups of fresh chopped vine-ripe cherry tomatoes. To make it healthier - omit the butter and decrease the oil to a teaspoon or so. You really don't need it. I've tried it with full oil and butter and without - I can't taste the difference. Add the grated cheese to the soup and cook for a few more minutes before serving instead of sprinkling it on the top. I use closer to half a cup of cheese and find the flavor is better. Also, I like to leave some of the cooked shrimp and veggies aside and only blend about 2/3 of them. It makes the soup a little chunky and VERY yummy! Use a sweet onion rather than yellow. In my opinion, the yellow is too strong and the soup can come out tasting like onion and not much else. I usually make a double batch of this and freeze it for lunches. It's a wonderful recipe. I'm so glad I found it.

Very good bisque; tatsy and light. I didnt have half&half so I sued 15% cream and it was fine. I will keep this one in the rotation. Having a huge bag of frozen shrimp on hand at all time really is so handy in the kitchen!

I actually didn't care for this as much as others seem to. It tasted a little bland when I was done - between adding a lot of half and half plus the no-salt-added tomato sauce, the flavor was just too understated. So I added a lot more salt and pepper, a bit more salted butter, plus some cayenne pepper - that made it pretty good.

I made this recipe last night when I had a couple of friends over for dinner. Fantastic! They both want the recipe. It was super easy to make and was great with the French Bread Rolls to Die For from this site. I used a bit more of the chili oil - maybe it wasn't hot enough because I could only find Thai Sweet Chili Oil. I also couldn't find no fat half and half in my regular grocery store so I used some no fat evaporated milk along with the regular half and half (equal quantities of both). Instead of topping it with parmesan, I put a single whole shrimp and sprig of parsley on top. I'll be making this again. Thanks for a keeper!

Awesome and sooooo easy to prepare. Made this for lunch today and it was done in no time flat. Used frozen,cooked jalapeno flavored shrimp. Gave it just a "hint" of heat but the flavor was outstanding. Thanks for a super easy, delicious meal. I saved out a few whole shrimp for garnish but did puree the rest.

This soup was AWESOME. I only wish I had made more. I cut this down to 2 servings, which still barely filled 1 smallish bowl. I used real half and half (with fat) and omitted the butter. I also used a food processor, which was kind of a disaster - I guess my food processor isn't liquid-tight. Next time I'll separate out the non-liquid ingredients, and blend those together sans liquid and mix it together in the end.

This was excellent! Everyone loved it. I did not use fat free half and half. I used regular half and half but I did cut back a little. Other than that, I followed thr recipe.

OK. Something about the texture did not turn out right for me. I may have used too much shrimp...also I used regular fat half and half...perhaps its the fat-free that makes the texture right. Easy to make though. Will look for another recipe.
