    Easy Tomato Soup is a simple, homemade tomato soup that requires only a few ingredients you probably already have like onions, carrot and canned tomatoes.

    Easy Tomato Soup with Pimento Cheese Grilled Cheese Croutons from Living Well Kitchen

    So as I was making my grilled cheese today, I realized that I needed some veggies.

    Since it's getting warmer outside, I decided a nice salad would be a great complement to my cheesy sandwich.

    Right as I was walking out the door to walk to pick up salad ingredients, the heavens opened and it started storming outside. And the temperature dropped at least 10 degrees.

    Um... what to do? What to do?

    I can't get the store, and I need some veggies with my grilled cheese.

    Answer: make soup. Easy Tomato Soup using basic ingredients I have on hand. Canned tomatoes, onions, garlic, carrots, and olive oil.

    Now, this isn't the best tomato soup in the whole entire universe {this one is!!}. But it is super simple and requires ingredients pretty much always in my kitchen. And it always hits the spot!

    Plus, grilled cheese + tomato soup is the most perfect combination.

    There's a reason it's so popular... it's downright delicious.

    To make things a little more interesting, I made Pimento Cheese Grilled Cheese and cut them into little squares to make grilled cheese croutons.

    I think it's just adorable, and it was really fun to eat.
