Creamy Vegan Tomato Soup Recipe

Hi friends! Something about tomato soup feels nostalgic to most of us. Especially when it's paired with a grilled cheese. I decided to make a vegan version and I would have to say, I like it 100x more. It tastes just as good (if not better) and is dairy-free! This soup recipe can be eaten days later as I feel the flavor gets better overtime.

I didn't do a step-by-step with how to make the grilled cheese because lets face it - most of us are pros by now but I did want to share the ingredients I used to make it vegan. The Vio Life cheddar cheese melts AMAZING and tastes just like American cheese! The Miyoko's butter is my favorite because it melts great and honestly, tastes like butter! You can eat the whole stick guilt-free without the tummy ache... jk... not really!
