The beloved Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese Casserole—a viral comfort classic—is getting a nutritious makeover. This dish blends two childhood favorites into a cozy, satisfying meal. With a few smart swaps, you can enjoy all the flavor while keeping things lighter and healthier for everyday cooking.
This casserole went viral for good reason. It combines melty grilled cheese sandwiches with creamy tomato soup, layered and baked into one irresistible dish. Perfect for cold evenings or family meals, it’s easy to prepare and incredibly satisfying.
But many traditional versions are heavy on sodium, processed cheese, and white bread. That’s why we’ve created a cleaner, homemade version packed with flavor and simple, better-for-you ingredients.
In a pot, sauté chopped onions and garlic in a teaspoon of olive oil. Add crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and a dash of black pepper, basil, and oregano. Simmer for 15–20 minutes, then blend until smooth.
Lightly brush whole grain bread with olive oil. Add part-skim cheese between slices and grill until golden. Cut sandwiches into quarters.
In a baking dish, layer grilled cheese chunks and ladle over warm tomato soup. Repeat until the dish is filled. Top with a sprinkle of cheese and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes until bubbling and golden.
This lighter take on the viral favorite delivers warmth, nostalgia, and nutrition in every bite. It’s perfect for busy weeknights, cozy weekends, or make-ahead lunches.
For added nutrition, toss in some chopped spinach or roasted red peppers into the soup before blending. You can also use a dairy-free cheese alternative to make this dish vegan-friendly.
