Tomato Bisque

For me, nothing beats a good homemade Tomato Bisque soup when it is accompanied by a fresh, hot, grilled cheese sandwich. Yum! An added benefit? Kids love to dip a gooey grilled cheese sandwich into the soup, so they eat it right up.

When serving to adults, adding a shot of Outerbridge’s Sherry Pepper Sauce gives it an extra little kick.
