Creamy Tomato Soup w/ Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Today’s Menu: Creamy Tomato Soup w/ Grilled Cheese Sandwich

To start my morning off I a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. We had our first snow of the season overnight. We had about 1/2 an inch so nothing major. Some places in the area had about an 1″ of snow and it froze making a mess of the roads. We had a high of 41 degrees and sunny for the day. Our driveway froze up a bit so it kept me indoors until it melted, my Hoveround doesn’t do good on snow and ice! So not a lot going on today. I gave Mom a hand in the kitchen making some of her Hanky – Pankies and a pan of Chocolate Walnut Fudge. And yes both taste as good as they sound! So for Dinner tonight I prepared Creamy Tomato Soup w/ Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

I wanted something light and easy to prepare, what better than Creamy Tomato Soup with a Grilled Cheese Sandwich. I heated up a can of Amy’s Organic Creamy Tomato Soup. My favorite Tomato Soup by far. I’ve been using for quite some time now. So creamy with a fantastic flavor and it’s 110 calories and 19 carbs. Just empty the contents into a small sauce pan and heat on medium, stirring often, until heated. And it’s ready to go and so good!

Then for my Grilled Cheese I’ll be using; Kraft Deli Deluxe Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Blue Bonnet Light Butter, and Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Bread. I started by buttering the outside half of a slice of bread. Layered 2 slices of the Sharp Cheddar on top. Added my top half of the sliced bread, buttering the outside of the slice. I then got out a skillet, heated it up on medium heat and lightly coated it with a 1/2 pat of Butter. When the Butter was melted I added my sandwich. Grilled it on both sides until it was golden brown and the Cheese melted. For Dessert/Snack tonight I had a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzel Sticks with a Diet Mango/Tea Snapple to drink.
