Copycat Campbell's Tomato Soup #SoupSwappers


Okay.

Another new blogging group.  Because it isn’t enough to start working full time – I need to join more blogging groups too – hahaha!

Anyhow this one is call Soup Saturday Swappers and our theme this month is Healthy Soup Options!

Is there anything better than a classic tomato soup?

I’ve made a bunch of different versions of tomato soup over the years.  I’ve added beans or sausage for a heartier soup, rosemary or cheddar and basil for a pop of flavor, and even grilled cheese croutons.  But this time I wanted to take it back to the basics.

A smooth, silky tomato soup.


I found this amazing copycat version and it’s a new household staple.  I served my soup alongside a croque monsieur (so delicious!!) and it was perfection!  This soup is made for dipping grilled cheese sandwiches!

So make tomato soup and stay warm friends!

  1. That soup sounds so delicious. There is nothing like a basic tomato soup with grilled cheese. And my eyes keep going to that cheesy goodness!
