Low Calorie Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup


So lets be honest.. who doesn't love grilled cheese and tomato soup?! The only downside is that usually things smothered in butter are high in calories. Well, I have a solution that will make your taste buds happy. You will all be thanking me especially now that the cooler weather is approaching. Grilled cheese and tomato soup is one of my favorite cooler weather foods.

Calories for this meal: 328
Calories for if you have the entire can of soup instead of just half: 440
Calories for if you have an extra slice of cheese: 418
Calories for the whole can and an extra slice of cheese: 530

Ingredients:

  • Great Value (Walmart brand) tomato soup. (average size can is 90 calories per serving for 2.5 servings or 225 for the whole can)
  • Sara Lee Soft & Smooth Whole Grain White bread (120 calories for 2 slices)
  • Slice of cheddar cheese (I get pre sliced and its 90 calories for one slice)
  • I can't believe it's not butter spray (it says 0 calories but I estimate it is about 5 calories for spraying the bread)
  • Garlic salt
  • Pepper
Instructions:
  1. Get your tomato soup cookin!
  2. Instead of slathering your bread with butter like you would normally do.. just spray the outside pieces of bread with your butter spray.
  3. Place the "buttered" side down on a skillet, add your slice of cheese, sprinkle a little garlic salt seasoning on top (to taste) and put your last slice of bread over the cheese, "buttered" side up.
  4. Grill it like you would normally make a grilled cheese!
  5. Serve up your soup, topped with a little pepper, and grilled cheese and enjoy!
Thanks for reading!!!!!!!!

Cheesy & Spicy Grilled Cajun Chicken

This is the recipe for the super yummy cajun chicken that I had with the roasted mashed potatoes. This chicken is nice and spicy, but is toned down a little with the cheese on top. So.. lets get down to business! Makes about 5 servings if each person has 2 pieces of chicken (yes yes I know in the picture there are 4 pieces on the plate.. I didn't finish it all because I was stuffed like a turkey) Ingredients: 10 thawed out chicken tenderloins 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 Tbsp Cajun seasoning 1 tsp sea salt 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Instructions: Take your thawed out chicken and place it in a bowl.
