In honor of National Grilled Cheese Month, I’m posting a different grilled cheese sandwich every single day through the month of April. You’re welcome.
While I’m not the biggest fan of tomato soup, I certainly appreciate the classic combo of tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich, with American cheese on white bread, of course. I had a blast brainstorming potential grilled cheeses, and I was positively tickled by the idea of making a sandwich with the tomato soup inside. And it worked! The sweet, tomato cream cheese filling melted into the American cheese, and the childhood taste-memory was uncanny.

Wonderful sandwich and very easy-to-make
This looks wonderful! Love how you brought the tomato soup aspect into the sandwich instead of on the side, yum!
Fantastic idea! Will have to try this.
