My kiddos love dipping a grilled cheese sandwich into a warm bowl of tomato soup. While, I too enjoy a nice cheesy sandwich and tomato soup, I also like a variety. The other day, after yet another request for grilled cheese and tomato soup for dipping, I decided to get a little creative. I took Annie’s version of Trim Healthy Mama’s Simple Tomato Soup recipe, added in a few extra spices and finished it off with some cheese tortellini. The end result was delicious and pleased both kiddos and adults. Perfect to eat alone or for dipping your grilled cheese!
