Ingredients

5-6 tomatoes, sliced in quarters

2 tbsp. olive oil

4 cloves garlic- keep whole

1/2 cup onion

1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup vegetable broth

Oregano, parsley, basil, rosemary, salt and pepper to taste

For the top

Rosemary bread (I get this at hanaford, you could use a plain sourdough bread though too)

your favorite grilled cheese cheese

Smart balance butter


Directions

Mix tomatoes with 1 tbsp. olive oil, garlic cloves, oregano, parlsey, basil, salt and pepper and roast at 350 for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix onions with olive oil and vinegar and bake to caramelize at the same temperature for the same time.

Once the vegetables are done, add to a large pot and simmer for 30 minutes, adding milk and vegetable broth and more of the spices to taste. Once heated through, mix with a blender, hand blender or food processor until smooth. While the tomatoes, garlic and onions are simmering, make grilled cheese sandwiches and cut into small pieces. Top with rosemary and serve warm.
