Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread (your choice)
- 4 slices of cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 can (15 oz) of tomato soup
- 1/2 cup water or milk (for the soup)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Soup: In a small saucepan, combine the canned tomato soup with water or milk, and heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until hot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Make the Grilled Cheese: While the soup is heating, spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place two slices, buttered side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Layer cheese on top, then add the other slices of bread, buttered side up.
- Cook the Sandwich: Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining slices.
- Serve: Cut the grilled cheese sandwiches in half and serve hot with the tomato soup. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
