The Loneliest Cookbook- Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup

Hello Lovely Savers!

As some of you well know, I live in Minnesota, and right about now it is quite chilly outside. We’re talking ten below zero windchill. When I lived in Duluth in college, it was even colder if you can believe it. So today I was feeling some good ol’ fashioned comfort food. Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup!

This is not going to be the most healthy of recipes, there may or may not be a lot of sodium, butter, and cheese involved. AND if you do not eat a lot of sandwiches or use cheese squares, its not particularly cost effective in the leftovers department. Bread has a way of drying out or molding if you don’t eat it or something. Rude. But, if you can confidently say that you eat a lot of carbs and dairy (like me) then this is a yummy and cozy dish you can prepare for yourself tonight!
