Grilled cheese sandwich served with tomato soup The soup is fantastic due to its sweet, acidic taste and the pairing with the melty, gooey cheese spread on the bread. It's possible to be creative, although we prefer the traditional sandwich. If you want to make a variation of it - toasty toast with butter and melting American Cheese. You're welcome to experiment. You can make it with any cheese you want such as gouda or cheddar. If you're looking for something truly unique try bacon or braised shortribs.
