What you see before you is in my mind, undoubtedly the most delicious tomato soup in the world. So much better than Cambell's. It is organic, low calorie, and absolutely delicious. My mom buys it at Costco. Nutritional information as well as the picture can be found HERE. I kind of LIVE off of it in college. The best part about it is that it is fast. One shake of the carton, and I pour it into a bowl like milk. Two minutes covered in the microwave, and bam. Hot, filling soup. It is amazing.
Lately I've been making it with grill cheese. Kind of. I use a whole wheat pita pocket - it's 90 calories, and I fill it with a couple tablespoons of tomato basil feta. Then I put that sucker in the toaster, open part up, obviously, while I have the soup in the microwave. The sides get all crunchy and the top sort of closes in on itself. The feta gets all soft and sticks together, and it makes for the ultimate dipping tool while your soup cools to the point you can eat it with a spoon. I don't have exact caloric measurements - I do know 1 cup of the soup is 100 calories - but I'm pretty sure it's way good for you. And... definitely way good in your belly. It's a fast, filling, easy meal that won't give you a muffin-top, is the moral of the story. And I'm all about that.
Also. I'm on my third week of running now! No complaints, except that I'm hitting the point where I WANT to go on my rest days... Weird. So weird. I just feel better. So last night, rather than push my shins on a rest day, I opted for a Jillian Michael's DVD. I am now avoiding stairs today... that woman is terrifying. And kicked my butt.
MMmmmMMM!! I love tomato soup! And - the only time I've ever eaten feta cheese was at your house. :) I need to branch out a bit more!
