Add a fun twist to purchased tomato soup by topping it with croutons made from a grilled cheddar cheese sandwich.

Pepper-Tomato Soup and Croutons

Sandwich cheese slices between bread slices. In a sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon butter until melted over medium heat. Add sandwich and gently press down and continue to cook until golden. Add remaining tablespoon butter, flip sandwich over and continue to cook until golden. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into bite-size croutons.

In a medium saucepan, combine soup and red pepper. Cook until heated through. Serve soup with prepared croutons.
