Chunky Tomato Soup with Cheese Croutons

 

April is National Grilled Cheese Month and nothing pairs better with a grilled cheese sandwich than a warm bowl of tomato soup. This Chunky Tomato Soup with Cheese Croutons is a quick and easy recipe using Tuttorosso Tomatoes. They are my favorite canned tomatoes and since they are picked at peak ripeness, anything you make with these canned tomatoes will taste garden fresh.

Chunky Tomato Soup can be made in about 20 minutes, making it perfect for a weeknight meal. It also reheats well for lunch the next day.

This recipe uses one can of Tuttorosso Crushed Tomatoes with basil and one can of Tuttorosso Diced Tomatoes. I love that this tomato soup is both creamy and smooth and has a little texture contrast from chunks of tomato.

And I really love that Tuttorosso Tomatoes are packed in Non-BPA liner cans and contain no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

Onion, garlic, basil, and oregano are all the seasoning this delicious soup needs.

The crunchy cheese croutons are every bit as yummy as the soup and pair perfectly with it. Made from baguette cubes tossed in olive oil and covered in cheddar cheese, they are toasted until crunchy.

    It is so brilliant to post a tomato soup recipe during grilled cheese month! Also love that this is a chunky version.

  2. This is a total bowl of comfort right here, complete with those cheesy croutons! I love that your soup is chunky, too — I like it that way so much better than completely smooth!

    I totally agree, nothing goes better with grilled cheese than tomato soup! This chunky version looks SO good, Christin! It’s cold here today, so I wish I had this to warm me up!
