hey guys I just came in from working out I still got my walking to do but uh I started up again today and I am out of shape I out of shape shape and I’m going to pay for it I already feel I already feel somewhat sore but uh I’m going to get started on dinner so that can get started as I am on my treadmill I’m going to be making some tomato soup and um grilled cheese sandwiches so let me get my ingredients together and I’ll show you guys how I make it all right so I’ve got Tomatoes here that I’ve cut in half and I have a red bell pepper these are all washed and dried and um I cut everything everything in half so I’m going to drizzle some olive [Music] oil all right here we go it’s going to drizzle olive oil all over this I also peeled a head of garlic a whole head of garlic and I’m going to go ahead and throw that in there everywhere and [Music] I’m going to mix this up you know what it is what it is this is how it’s going to stay I don’t want to I don’t want to put my hands in there so I’m just going to add a little more olive oil all right and [Music] then I’m going to add a little salt on top of everything just a little little sprinkle some black pepper uh some dried basil so basil just going to sprinkle some of that on top as well all right and then I’m also going to do a little time very [Music] little a very small pinch all right and I’m going to my oven is at 400° I’m going to go ahead and stick these in there until this is all nice and roasted so I’ll be back all right guys so I have my pot here it is warming up up I chopped up some onion about half of an onion I’m going to go ahead and sauté that I’m going to add a little olive oil into my pot and I’m going to add my onion [Music] all right so I’m just going to sauté this for a few minutes and then I’ll start adding my other ingredients so I’ll be back all right the onions are just about there I am going to add a little bit of dried basil like about a pinch and mix that up and I’m also going to add a tiny pinch of oregano just a a teeny tiny pinch cuz sometimes the oregano can be overpowering so just a little bit all right I’m going to finish mixing this up I’ll be back all right now that we’ve got the onion oregano and basil going I’m going to add 2 tbspoon of balsamic [Music] vinegar and just going to go ahead and let that reduce a little bit I’ll be back all right that has reduced already and so I’m going to go ahead and add the broth you can use vegetable you can use whatever uh vegetable probably works best but all I had was chicken so that’s what I’m using right now all right and I’m going to turn this up so it can start to boil and then once it starts to boil I’m going to reduce the Heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes and then I’m going to go ahead and turn this off and just wait for the tomatoes to be done and I’ll be back all right the veggies are out and they’re nice and roasted so I’m going to start adding all of these including the garlic into the broth that I made and then I’m going to use my immersion blender uh to to blend this all together if you don’t have an immersion blender you can let this cool down and just put it in the regular blender and it’ll be it’ll be fine so let me go ahead and get these all into the pot and I’ll be back all right so I’m going to go ahead and get my immersion blender in there and hopefully I don’t make a mess [Music] just get everything mixed up so let me go ahead and do that and I’ll be back all right so I’ve got the soup the tomatoes all Blended now I’m going to use about 1/4 cup of heavy cream and I’m going to go ahead and add that in there as well and then I’m just going to mix that up I’m going to check it for salt maybe add a little more black pepper and I’m going to start making the grilled cheese sandwiches for everybody the soup smells amazing it smells so good so give it a little quick taste test now that I have everything mixed up it is really good needs a little bit of salt I’m going to add salt and black pepper but it’s it’s good to go all right I’ll be back all right guys so the soup is done so I’m going to get started on the grilled cheese my griddle here is already hot so I went ahead and buttered a bunch of bread so I’m going to start by getting the cheese in there however much fits in there all right and then it’s going to cover those up as I go so I’m just going
