Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 slices cheddar cheese
  • Mayonnaise, for spreading on baguette
  • 16 slices whole-grain baguette, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • Butter, for the skillet
  • 2 cans (19 oz each) Progresso™ Heart Healthy Soup Creamy Tomato Basil
  • 8 (8 oz each) canning jars (lids removed) or ramekins
  • Chopped fresh basil, for topping
  • 8 small (approximately 4-inch) bamboo skewers

Instruction

  • Prepare your ingredients and heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, assemble sandwiches: Cut each cheese slice into 6 rectangles. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each baguette slice, then top half of baguette slices (mayonnaise-side down) with cheese. Top with another baguette slice (mayonnaise-side up) to form 8 mini sandwiches.
  • Melt a small pat of butter in heated skillet, then add sandwiches to skillet (in batches, if needed). Cook on both sides until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 8 minutes total. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat soup until warm. Divide soup evenly among canning jars or ramekins. Top with chopped fresh basil.
  • Cut each grilled cheese sandwich in half, then skewer 2 halves onto each skewer. Place skewers on top of jars of soup just before serving.
