The weather has been chilly here and I am loving it. It made me want to make a big pot of homemade soup. This creamy tomato soup is a family favorite. I have made it so many times I have the recipe memorized. It is just a few simple ingredients and so delicious. It comes together in just about 30 minutes. The toppings of white cheddar cheese, dill, and red pepper flakes are the perfect complement to the tomato soup. We love to serve ours with a grilled cheese. Enjoy!
