Creamless Tomato Soup

If you saw my Mini Grilled Cheese Hors d’Oeuvres the other day, you saw the ‘tomato soup shooters’! I have been itching for a little bit cooler weather to get in the kitchen and make some soup. I know you don’t have to have cooler weather, but it helps. Well last week there was a day that I wasn’t feeling super awesome: that was my sign. SOUP! Gone are the days of Campbell’s – I’m all about the homemade.

I wanted to find a recipe that didn’t have any heavy cream or half & half and adapted the perfect recipe. I’m excited to have this handy for the next time I’m craving tomato soup. The bonus is we’ve always got the ingredients on hand, so really this can be made any time. Paired with a grilled cheese sandwich it’s the perfect lunch or dinner. This would also be awesome paired with my Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese Sandwich (check it out!).
