Grilled cheese & tomato soup
 

This is our “stand by” meal when it’s time to eat and nothing has been prepared.
What do you fall back on ?

I love a good ol grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup. The fallback for our house though is pancakes, with real maple syrup of course.

grilled cheese sandwhich with ranch dressing

good old peanut butter toast with a sliced banana on top!

Since it is just me, a PBJ sandwich or a bowl of Cheerios

A cheese omelet. If there are leftover veggies, I add them in, too. Toast and applesauce to complete the meal.

I grew up with Campbell's tomato soup made with milk added.

My MIL made tomato soup from canned tomatoes and milk. So there were globs of red stuff floating in white. It may have tasted fine, but I was only 19 at the time and would not try it.

A perfect meal! One of our favorites.

I make delicious tomato basil cream soup. A can of diced tomatoes blended with immersion blender. half and half or cream added not enough to turn it white but lighter red not pink, butter, salt, onion juice or powder, fresh basil paste. Most times I use basil and garlic seasoned canned tomatoes, not stewed tomatoes though.

Our go to meal is whatever you can find you want to eat. If I'm busy or rushed I don't think about what to prepare for a meal unless someone is under the age of eight. LOL

Cheese omelet and toast, or a grilled cheese and a salad.

This sounds nearly identical to the tomato basil cream soup I make, except I'll toss in a can of Ro-Tel with the can of diced tomatoes, and add gnocchi. The gnocchi throws this soup over the top for my husband and sons.

My fall back is good old peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Loved tomato soup and grilled cheese as a yummy combo but my tummy now rebels against any thing tomato beyond small dollop on a burger or dog.

Pancakes and eggs topped with any fruit I have.

We love tomato soup and grilled cheese sammys!!!
Another quickie is eggs. I love eating breakfast for supper once in awhile. Add pancakes too!

Turkey sausage "Polish-type" on a bun. And NO you cannot taste the difference between the 2 because the exact same spices are used to make both of them.

For DH its macaroni and cheese with hot dogs. Me a "cardboard pizza" the ones that are $3.00 an I put whatever is in the fridge on it.

My "go tos" are a bowl of bow tie pasta with butter; french bread with melted cheese; or a big bowl of buttered popcorn. Unfortunately, we love our carbs.

When I was a little girl grilled cheese and Campbell's tomato soup made with milk was a favorite for sure!
Now I would throw a juicy rib-eye steak on the bbq or scramble up som fresh eggs! Eggs ya gotta love em'
