There’s nothing quite as comforting as a warm bowl of tomato soup with a perfectly gooey grilled cheese. It’s my go-to when I want to feel perfectly cozy and loved.
Classic Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup
Ingredients
- 2 slices bread
- 2 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 can (14.5 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Steps
- For soup: Combine crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and let cook for 10 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, season with salt and pepper.
- For grilled cheese: Butter one side of each bread slice. Place one slice butter-side down in a hot skillet. Top with cheese, then the second slice of bread (butter-side up).
- Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve immediately with hot tomato soup.
