Creamy Tomato Soup

My favorite season of the year (by FAR), is fall.  Everything about it is so cozy and romantic to me.  It’s all about warmth and family and being together and it really just makes me happy all around.  There are so many other things I love about it, too.  Activities like pumpkin patches, corn mazes, DIY fall decor, and the fashion like boots and scarves are some of my favorites (although I haven’t even done some of those things because of where we live. I think you can only wear a scarf in Miami for about 2 minutes before you start sweating profusely).  Anyway, it still enchants me.  However, my absolute favorite part of fall? The food!

Mikey doesn’t understand me at all when I say the food is my favorite part of fall.  Apple crisp is my number one fall dessert choice.  I only want to eat it in the fall though.  It feels like I’m cheating if I enjoy it any other time of the year.  Mikey doesn’t get it.  He says if I like it so much, I should just make it whenever I want.  That’s just not how it goes though.  I want to enjoy it along with the season.  And like that, there are many other dishes I love to enjoy once September hits.  I’m thinking something along the lines of autumn squash soup, pumpkin flavored desserts, hot chocolate, and stuff like that. You get me?

I think my favorite part about fall food is the soups! So delicious.  Today I want to share one that I make over and over and never fails me!

Creamy tomato soup.

Yep, like the Panera kind.

Only better.

This one is almost completely creamy.  I love the little chunks of tomato, but if you don’t, feel free to pulse it completely.  Served with a side of grilled cheese on whole grain bread toasted to a buttery gold perfection? I’m convinced there’s nothing better than dipping a grilled cheese in tomato soup.

Grilled cheese + tomato soup = FALL!

You have got to get your hands on this recipe and make it ASAP.  Or well, it’s still August so maybe it’s just a tad early.  Save it, though! You are going to want this when the colder months hit.  And it’s so easy, you’ll find yourself making it over and over again.  At least I do!

This last one is great for making a grilled cheese perfectly every time! ;)
