Yummy Gourmet Grilled Cheese

The weather in Charlotte is GROSS! Days and days of rain and chilly temperatures. Yesterday on my planning period, I ran to the teeter to grab the ingredients for the best yucky weather dinner. Grilled cheese and tomato soup with a twist!

What you need:

Crusty Italian bread from the bakery. If its not sliced, get them to slice it for you

Kraft BIG sliced cheese. I use 2% reduced fat sharp cheddar

Vine ripened tomatoes

Oscar Meyer Applewood Smoked Bacon. Yum.

Fry up the bacon. Butter up the bread. Put it all together on the panini press and yum, the best grilled cheese!

For the soup, I was looking for a great homemade tomato basil recipe and didn't find one on my iPhone while strolling through the grocery store so I opted for Progresso Tomato Basil and Chunky tomato. I bought two cans of each and combined them all in a big pot. It was not enough for 5 people! So buy lots because it is good! And if you have a great tomato basil soup please let me know. I've got my handy dandy immersion blender and can't wait to use it!
