Recipe Card
ingredients
For the tomato soup
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 28 ounce can Tuttorosso Peeled Plum Tomatoes
- 1 14.5 ounce can Tuttorosso Diced Tomatoes Basil, Garlic & Oregano
- 3 cups chicken stock
- 1/3 cup half and half
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh basil, roughly chopped
ingredients
For the grilled cheese
- 10 slices sourdough bread
- 1 package sliced white cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cheddar jack cheese, shredded
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- salted butter
Method
Step 1
Add olive oil, onion, garlic, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to a large pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the Tuttorosso Peeled Plum Tomatoes, Tuttorosso Diced Tomatoes Basil, Garlic & Oregano, and chicken stock. Combine and bring to a boil. Then cover, turn the heat to medium low, and let simmer for 30 minutes.
Step 3
After 30 minutes, reduce the heat to low and use an immersion blender to blend the soup into a smooth, thick consistency. [Note: If you do not have an immersion blender you could allow the soup to cool and blend in a classic blender.]
Step 4
To the blended soup add the half and half and fresh basil. Combine. Keep warm on low heat while you prepare the grilled cheese sandwiches.
Step 5
To 5 slices of bread add the white cheddar cheese, cheddar jack cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Use however much you’d like of each. Then top with the remaining 5 bread slices.
Step 6
Start by adding 1 tablespoon of butter to a large pan on the stove over low heat. Melt completely and add the sandwiches. [Note: The amount of sandwiches will depend on the size of your pan.]
Step 7
Cook the sandwiches on one side until browned to your liking, ~3 minutes per side or until browned to your liking. Add more butter as needed. [Note: The key is to cook low and slow so that the cheese melts and the bread browns, without burning.]
Step 8
Remove sandwiches from heat and serve alongside tomato soup.
