Bell Pepper Tomato Soup

I forgot to mention I made really good 1 point tomato soup. It's from Weight Watchers and called Bell Pepper-Tomato soup. It's not to hard, but made me feel like a master chef.

2 tsp olive oil
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion diced
1 medium carrot chopped
1 1/2 tsp herbes de Provence. (Internet search gave me easy recipe for this her mixture)
3 medium sweet peppers orange or red sliced
14 1/2 oz can of chicken broth
28 oz can of crushed tomatoes
1 tsp of salt
1/2 cup of fat free creamer or fat free half and half. (I used powdered fat free coffee creamer)
1/2 tsp of black pepper
1 tsp sugar
