PROTEIN GRILLED CHEESE:

TOMATO SOUP:

Instructions
 

  • To make the protein sparing grilled cheese, preheat a skillet over medium heat.
  • Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter one side of a slice of protein bread. Place the slice of protein bread butter-side-down onto the skillet and add a slice of cheese. Butter the second slice of protein bread on one side and place butter-side-up on top of the cheese. Grill until lightly browned, flip the sandwich and continue grilling until cheese is melted and the protein bread is golden brown and toasted. Repeat with remaining bread and cheese.
  • To make the protein tomato soup, place the beef broth and tomato sauce into a soup pot and heat over low heat until warm (or pour into a bowl and heat in the microwave for 60 seconds). Taste and add salt and dried basil if desired. Add stevia glycerite if desired.
  • Pour tomato soup into 2 bowls and serve with the grilled cheese sandwiches.
  • Best served fresh.
