Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Tomato Soup

This classic American lunch was made completely from ingredients purchased at Trader Joe's, and took about 10 minutes to whip up.
I used poppyseed bread and TJ's cheddar, both on sale for under $3. I buttered my grill a little and grilled the toast until crispy. Look how stringy that cheese gets!
The cream of tomato soup comes in a paper carton near the chicken stock and canned soup. It's $2 a quart and quite good. I like to immerse part of the sandwich completely so the bread soaks up the soup and the cheese gets really soft and stringy. I eat the other pieces plain or dunked in soup/

  • Oh my I want to eat this for dinner tonight. Unfortunately, my holiday weight isn't coming off as fast as yours did so no grilled cheeses for me for a few more weeks.

    I really love reading this everyday, thank you so much for posting!

  • Trader Joe's Roasted tomato and red pepper soup is just unbelievable. I would recommend it. I might go to TJs today, since you brought up TJs and tomato soup in the same posting...
