Last week it was announced that I will be the guest contributor on a very awesome blog called The White Library. Each week I will be contributing a new recipe to The White Library. I am super excited! Here is this weeks recipe that has been published on The White Library earlier today.
This week from we have something to cuddle up to, yummy wholesome comfort food. Some hot soup! This sweet tomato bisque and honey grilled cheese is sure to make your tummy scream for more. It may seem odd to pair something as sweet as honey with your grilled cheese, but give it a whirl, sweet and salty can sometimes make for a pleasant twist!
Sweet tomato bisque with honey grilled cheese
You will need:
- 3 tbs olive oil
- 1 onion, peeled and chopped
- 1 yam cooked until mostly soft
- 4-5 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 15-ounce can cannelloni (white) beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 – 15 ounce diced tomatoes
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- Mrs. Dash Sun Dried Tomato Basil to flavor as you like it
- 1/2 teaspoon Cheyenne pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Juice from 1 half lemon
In a large soup pot, saute onion, garlic and olive oil until the vegetables are tender, about 4 minutes. Add the beans, tomatoes, broth, spices, and yam and spices. Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, covered. Puree the soup in a blender (in small batches if needed – this may get a little messy). Return the soup to a soup pot and keep warm over low heat. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve or freeze for a busy day.
Honey Grilled Cheese
You will need:
- Harvati cheese
- Fresh artisan bread
- Honey
- fresh basil leaves
- fresh Roma tomato
- Butter
Butter each side of the bread. Add a thin layer of honey to one side of the bread, top with the cheese, thinly sliced tomato and a small basil leaf or so (until bread is covered). Grill on a Panini press or in a cast iron skillet until bread is toasted and cheese is melted. Let cool for a minute and eat!
Enjoy,
Brittany
