Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup (You'll Actually Eat!)

My husband and I had a really rushed day the other night, and we have been slacking in planning our dinners! The typical, "What do you want for dinner?" conversation totally happened, except this time, it was..."We have 25 minutes to make dinner, what do you want?"

Grilled cheese sandwiches are always our "hurry up we need dinner" meal, and so of course we decided that's what we'd have. However, I knew that wouldn't be enough to fill my big eater husband up, so it needed to be filling. We decided to experiment with the soup portion because it was the easiest to make more filling, and it's our least favorite part. It's great to dip, but honestly SO much of our soup goes right in the garbage afterwards (such a waste!)

Here is what we came up with, and it really was good! My husband wrote the recipe card and titled it:

This is not our soup! Just a picture I found online 

Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup (You'll Actually Eat!):

1 can Tomato Soup +1 can water
1 can drained corn (or frozen corn)
1 can Rotel tomatoes with chilis (or use fresh! we get TONS of both in our Bountiful Baskets)
1 can ranch style beans, drained
1-2 oz cream cheese
*we decided a little cilantro would be amazing in this too!

Place all ingredients in a pot, stirring occasionally, until cream cheese is melted & soup is heated.

Instead of cheddar, try mozzarella cheese *we LOVE mozzarella!
