Grilled Yellow Tomato Bisque is a smooth and creamy soup that is both savory and slightly sweet. It's perfect for any occasion, whether you want a quick weeknight dinner or a special event. This soup is made with yellow tomatoes, which have a slightly sweeter and milder flavor than red tomatoes. The tomatoes are grilled to give them a lightly charred flavor that adds depth to the soup. The addition of heavy cream gives the soup a smooth and creamy texture that complements the savory flavors of the tomatoes and onion. This soup is perfect for those who want a comforting and satisfying meal that's also healthy and packed with nutrients.

Instructions

1.	Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
2.	Cut the tomatoes into quarters and place in a mixing bowl with olive oil. Toss to coat the tomatoes evenly.
3.	Grill the tomatoes until they're lightly charred on all sides, approximately 10-12 minutes. Remove them from the grill and allow them to cool before removing the skin.
4.	Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until the onion is tender, approximately 5 minutes.
5.	Add the chicken broth, sugar, and tomatoes to the pan. Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Allow the mixture to simmer for approximately 15 minutes.
6.	Once the soup has simmered, pour it into a blender and blend until the mixture is smooth.
7.	Return the soup to the saucepan and stir in the heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
8.	Serve the soup in bowls and garnish each serving with chopped fresh mint or basil.
