This is a really yummy comfort soup with a zing. Brings together the classic taste of cream of tomato, bacon and grilled cheese all in a soup. The pepperjack is the surprise zing. Ingredients:
1 quart tomato with juice (i use home canned) |
2 teaspoons beef bouillon (i use better than boullion paste) |
1 cup milk (or half n half) |
6 slices bacon (fried crisp and crumbled) |
8 ounces monterey jack pepper cheese (shredded) |
Directions:
1. 1. Blend tomatoes in blender to smooth (or leave larger bits if you like). 2. 2. Place in 2 Qt pan. 3. 3. Add beef boullion paste to taste. I start with 2 teaspoons. 4. 4. Add some milk or half n half. 5. 5. Fry up bacon crisp and crumble it into soup. 6. 6. Heat until ready to boil and turn down to simmer 15-20 minutes. 7. 7. Top with shredded pepperjack when serving. 8. 8. You can add toasted croutons as well, but I didn't want the additional carbs. |
