Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
  • 28 ounces Canned crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dried basil
  • 8 slices Sourdough bread slices
  • 8 ounces Sharp cheddar cheese, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the crushed tomatoes, broth, and dried basil to the pot; bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, then stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    While the soup simmers, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice to ensure a crispy, golden crust.

  5. 5

    Place 2 ounces of cheddar cheese between two slices of bread, with the mayonnaise-coated sides facing outward.

  6. 6

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and grill the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes per side until the cheese is melted.

  7. 7

    Slice the grilled cheese sandwiches diagonally and serve immediately alongside a warm bowl of the tomato soup.
