Are You Ready for Soup and Sweater Season? So Are We!
If falling leaves and falling temperatures have you thinking about warm simple meals cozied up at home, then head to Farmview Market to pick up everything you need for a quick and delicious meal.
Artisan Select Soups are made fresh here in our kitchen and stocked with good-for-you ingredients like homemade broth, vegetables picked at their prime, and aromatic spices to make your house smell like you’ve been simmering soup all day! Pair them with an upgraded grilled cheese sandwich using Rock House Creamery and CalyRoad cheeses for a satisfying supper for one or an easy family favorite.
We’ve done all the hard work for you already with the soups, but here are a few pointers to make your grilled cheese sandwich the perfect accompaniment.
First, start with bakery-fresh bread from Farmview Market that stays crunchy and golden brown when cooked in a skillet. Next, make the shredded or spreadable cheese the very top and the very bottom ingredient, layering the extras thinly in between. And, finally, if the cheese is not quite to peak ooey-gooey when the bread is crisp and ready, turn the heat to low and set a lid on top briefly so everything melds together. Then cut your expertly prepared grilled cheese sandwich into dipping strips for the ultimate grilled cheese and soup experience.
A little bit traditional, a little bit fancy, these soup + sandwich combos are great for an easy dinner on the couch watching football or make light work of entertaining. Here are our favorite pairings for this fall season:
Tomato Basil Soup + Cranberry Orange Chevre Grilled Cheese
Vegetable Soup + Bacon Apple Cheddar Grilled Cheese
For a heartier meal still packed with wholesome ingredients (ok, except for the bacon!), curl up with a bowl of chunky Vegetable Soup prepared with corn, okra and everything else to make this healthy soup anything but boring. Serve a decadent Bacon Apple Cheddar Grilled Cheese with it by slicing up crisp Pink Lady and Granny Smith apples and layering them with Farmview bacon pieces and our exceptionally meltable Rockhouse Creamery Clack’s Chapel Cheddar. This is an unforgettable soup and sandwich combination sure to please everyone in your house!
Green Tomato Soup + Pear and Gouda Grilled Cheese
If you’ve never tried Farmview Green Tomato Soup get ready for a new fall favorite! We start with firm, bright green tomatoes picked at the perfect time. Next, we blend them with country ham and tangy cider vinegar to bring out their earthy flavor. When this soup is on the menu at home, add something sweet on the side with a Pear and Gouda Grilled Cheese. Rock House Creamery Nanny Gouda Cheese is rich and nutty and combines with bright ripe pears, and baby arugula to add your daily dose of greens with a peppery bite.
Creole Soup + Tomato Bacon Cheddar Grilled Cheese
For our final fall pairing try something different and full of flavor with our new Farmview Artisan Select Creole Soup. Local vegetables and the distinctive seasonings of the Caribbean come together in this tomato and pepper based soup. We like it alongside the traditional grilled cheese ingredients in a Tomato Bacon Cheddar Grilled Cheese. Ripe tomatoes, crisp bacon, fresh basil and shredded Clack’s Chapel Cheese meet to make a mouth-watering sandwich and round out the subtle spice in the soup.Nothing beats the old-fashioned goodness of fall comfort foods, and tasty soups and toasted sandwiches are at the top of our easy-to-make and easy-to-please list this year. Farmview Artisan Select Soups are made with nothing artificial, so you can feel good about spending the time you’ll save on tailgating, carving pumpkins and starting your Christmas shopping early. Let Farmview Market help you to savor the season with fresh and healthy meal ideas for your family and fall celebrations.
