It seems that the new trend in grilled cheese is grilled cheese toast! For the coziest meal you will ever have, Tuck it into Sunny Anderson’s delicious, warm roasted tomato soup.
If you were under the impression that homemade tomato soup was difficult to make, think again!
The tomato soup itself gets a great start with Roma tomato halves combined with olive oil, seasonings, garlic cloves, and onions.
(Actually, any kind of tomato will work great…Romas make the prep time much shorter, although you could even use cherry tomatoes if you wish, which will just slightly increase the prep time, as it will take longer to halve many cherry tomatoes than it will to halve Romas.)
The combo. is roasted at a somewhat high temperature for about 40 minutes.
The roasted tomatoes, garlic, onion and seasonings are then placed into a blender, and blended for just a very short amount of time.
If you find that your tomato mixture is a bit thicker than you would like, you can thin it up with some meat or vegetable broth if you want!
Other great additions that will make this soup shine include heavy cream or yogurt!
After blending, the mixture is poured into a saucepan and heated further on the stovetop.
In this video, Sunny also covers the basics for broiling up cheesy bread slices, which make a wonderful accompaniment to this roasted tomato soup.
If you make this recipe combo., your guests (or family) will think you slaved away in the kitchen for hours when instead the total prep time, other than the length of time the tomatoes were roasted, is really not very lengthy at all!
