BEST GRILLED CHEESE AND TOMATO SOUP EVER!

It’s really that good. I made it last week and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. The salty, sweet, crunchy, melty goodness cannot be beat. SAVE this recipe now so when you’re craving it soon, you’ll know where to find it.

TOMATO SOUP

12 Roma tomatoes

1/2 onion

4 garlic cloves

fresh thyme

olive oil, salt and pepper to taste

***roasted on baking sheet***

1 box chicken broth

1 tablespoon of sugar (optional)

1/2 cup cream (optional)

Roast first several ingredients in oven at 400° for 30-40 minutes. Move to pot and add chicken broth. Cook over medium heat for 30 minutes. Add optional ingredients if you wish. Blend soup with immersion blender. In a crunch you could use a regular blender but I prefer the consistency and convenience of an immersion blender.

GRILLED CHEESE

2 slices bread (I used gluten free)

2 slices bacon

1/2 onion

Aged white cheddar

Fig Spread

Butter

While the tomato soup is cooking, you can begin your grilled cheese by cooking the bacon. Use the bacon grease to caramelize the onions. Cook them low and slow for at least 30 minutes. Once the onions and bacon are ready, you can butter your bread and begin putting together the grilled cheese. I like to put the fig spread on the bottom, then a layer of aged white cheddar, then bacon, then onions, then ANOTHER layer of the cheddar. Top it with the bread and throw it in the pan over medium heat. Flip when the cheese is beginning to melt. Once done, dig right in and let me know what you think!
