Today, we’re making the most delicious grilled cheese, made with homemade tomato butter and roasted garlic spread, gruyere and white American cheeses, and a super simple creamy tomato soup! This was so easy and so good — really fun way to elevate the classic grilled cheese without going to crazy on it. Highly recommend! How I did it below!
1. Make the tomato soup: Sautee half a medium onion in a saucepan with a tbsp of butter + EVOO. Season with salt and cook till translucent. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and red pepper flake (to taste) and sautee another minute, until fragrant. Then add 2 15 oz cans tomato puree, or in my case Pomi finely chopped tomatoes, a half cup of chicken stock, a half cup of half + half, a tbsp of sugar, a big pinch of salt and some freshly cracked pepper. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low, then cover and simmer for for around 30 minutes. If you want your soup smooth, transer in batches to blender or use an immersion blender. Check for seasoning at the end!
2. Make garlic spread: Cut the tops off 4 heads of garlic, drizzle with EVOO and salt, and enclose each separately in tinfoil. Put all foiled garlic heads on a sheet pan and into the oven at 400 F for 45 minutes. Remove from oven, allow to cool for a bit, then squeeze out the roasted garlic and pulse in a food processor with a few cloves of raw garlic until smooth.
3. Make the tomato butter: Strain a can of chopped tomatoes, using a wooden spoon to press down on them to release as much liquid as possible. Then, add about 2 tbsp of the remaining chunks to 1 stick of salted butter. Puree in a food processor until fully combined.
4. Make the grilled cheese: Shmear one side of each slice of bread (I used sourdough) with your tomato butter, then add to a skillet set to medium heat with a bit more butter. Then, shmear your roasted garlic onto the other side of the slice in the pan, add two slices (or 3 if you wanna get crazy) of white American cheese and cover with freshly grated gruyere (or you can buy smoked gruyere by the slice if you want). Then top with the other slice of bread, tomato butter side facing up. Once browned and toasty, flip, adding a bit more butter to the pan.
5. Once browned on both sides, serve with a cup of tomato sauce, sprinkled with a little more grated gruyere! If you’re making multiple sandwiches, leave them in a 250 F oven while the others are cooking. 🙂

I wonder if she’s eating like this on purpose….. I’ve always notice she looks a little weird when she eats ….. I’ve always wondered if it’s the dramatics….
❤️❤️

I would have to add some fresh sliced mozzarella to get a nice cheese pull for each bite. (◡ ω ◡)

Stop eating the food until it gets warm please! Stop! That’s dangerous
Tomato soup looks more like marinara sauce

This women is my new role model and hero

Hi Lindsay, first of all thank you for amazing recipes ❤ just have a question, besides chicken stock what did you add in tomato soup? the liquid that you poured, and instead of American cheese what can I use? I don't think it'll be available in my country, thanks a lot

Being allergic against garlic, it would kill me. Apart from that, looks nice,
