I have cooked enough family dinners to recognize a recipe people will ask for again, and Rustic Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese has that quality. This is a satisfying dish to keep in mind whenever dinner deserves a little more attention. This is exactly the sort of recipe that makes firing up the grill feel worthwhile.
Ingredients
- 3 lb fresh tomatoes (I used Dashti )
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 large cloves garlic, chopped
- 3 tbs olive oil
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1/2 tbs dried basil
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tbs chicken bouillon powder
- 2 cup water
- 3/4 cup cream
Grilled cheese
- 2 slices bread (I used my homemade bread)
- Shredded cheese ( cheddar, pepper jack)
- Salted butter
Instructions
- This is a rustic tomato soup, I didn’t peel the tomatoes but if you choose to you can do so but honestly using the whole of the tomato is the best (no waste) also you can make the soup thicker by cooking it down before adding the cream.
