Alicia at Vegan Epicurean gave me this idea when she made a luscious-looking Tomato Fennel Soup the other day. She mentioned that she had thought about serving it with grilled cheese sandwiches, but then decided not to. I immediately imagined little grilled cheese croutons.
For the croutons, I made little grilled cheese open-face sandwiches with some of VE's Vegan Cheddar Cheese Brick Substitute , which I must say, were delicious. Thanks Alicia!!
For the soup, I sweated off 1 large carrot, 1 large celery stalk, 1 medium diced onion, and two minced cloves of garlic in olive oil, with some red chili flakes and some oregano. Then I added 28 oz can of tomatoes, 1 cup veggie broth and 1 cup water. Blended it until smooth, then salt and pepper to taste.

Rose,
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, wish I had thought of it. My recipes look great at your house.
I can't wait to see what you do tomorrow,
Alicia
Thanks, as always, for the inspiration and for the bloggy companionship.
ReplyDeleteRose,
ReplyDeleteI didn't think my earlier comment posted, the computer was acting up. Don't ask how, I have no idea since I am just not that good with computers. I was coming back to post a comment when I saw it took.
My husband loved the cheeze crouton idea. He said to tell you thank you. Guess what I will be making soon?
I have a ridiculously busy day today. The gym, checking on my parents, Asian food store, cooking class and the vet. Can you say frazzled? Gotta go work out before I get lazy and bail. Talk to you soon.
have a great day,
Alicia
Great Pac-Mac photo! (Unfortunately, my hubby doesn't like tomato soup, so I will never make it).
ReplyDeleteRose,
