In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the red and

Preheat oven to 400°F. Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and
brush with oil. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until toasted. Place half
the bread slices in a large serving bowl and sprinkle with half the
cheese; repeat the layering process. Pour the hot soup into the
