99.9% of Americans of probably never made tomato soup from scratch. It was always Campbells and a grilled cheese sandwich..

I'm always so surprised that grilled cheese and tomato soup isn't a British staple, because it's the PERFECT rainy day meal. Or any day really, but it really hits the spot on a drizzly day

You say tomahtoe I say tomato, you say potahtoe, I say potato! We don’t care how you say it! That’s part of your culture, and the way we say it, is part of ours. And there’s not a thing wrong with that. If we were all just alike wouldn’t life, be boring? We love you guys. You can say tomahtoe if you want! ❤

Not speaking in any form of hyperbole, I without hesitation can proclaim that the majority of Americans have some form of warm memory associated with this combo.

"Why are we just finding out about this now? I'm 46!" LOL I'm 62 and I've been eating grilled cheese & tomato soup since I was a wee little Elana. It's a really good quick & easy lunch for kids.

Melted butter brushed on BOTH sides of BOTH slices is another level. Two slices of cheese. My grandsons used to beg for them.

Grlled cheese and tomato soup. Can't get anymore American than that.

Ooo ooo ooo! Butter the bread as well, and add some to the skillet for a better flavor. The butter makes the sandwich. Glad y’all are Americans now lol! I swear y’all have completely embraced us and we love ya for it.

I know that I am not the only one who knows this but this brings back particular memories. I can't have a grilled cheese with tomato soup without remembering sick days from school in the late 70's early 80's. The routine was lay in bed, watch the Price is Right and have a grilled cheese and soup for lunch. I swear it has healing properties!

You guys went nuts. I’m 38 and we just did grilled cheese with Kraft singles and a can of Campbell’s tomato soup out of the microwave. Looks amazing though!

The best part is experimenting to find out which cheeses you like best in it.

Kudos for making the soup yourself. We just pop open a can lol.

Grilled cheese, cheese, and tomato soup. Nothing better on a cold day.

Takes me back to my childhood. Playing in the snow and coming in to mamas grilled cheese and tomato soup.

One of the great things about tomato soup and grilled cheese is how quick and easy it is. If I had to make soup from scratch I'd never bother with it.

Elana just blew up the internet, grilled cheese croutons in tomato soup!!!!!!

As a man, I can say Mr. H is such a gentleman to let Mrs and lil H try first but I know inside he's dying to try these foods from the cooking videos. Yeah Grilled cheese and tomato soup is such comfort food.

Your young one has the great idea of breaking apart her grilled cheese, and putting it in the soup

Tomato soup and grilled cheese are the ultimate way to warm your soul on a cold day. Great job, guys.👍👍

Also, as you noticed grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup are easier to make for a quick meal. In the United States, they usually had for lunch.

That’s my husband’s favorite meal!! Except we buy Campbells Tomato Soup that’s been an American staple for 100 years! Wicked soup maker .. never seen one. And another thing.. I absolutely adore that you’re so hands on with Elana in the kitchen. She seems to love cooking! It’s such a beautiful and valuable skill for life. ❤️

I need to know: Does Mr. H take any of these wonderful foods to work to share with his colleagues? Tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich sounds really good right now!

Never heard of a "soupmaker" appliance. 🤔... but sounds awesome!😁😋👍🍅🥣

Now picture that combo on a really cold,snowy day.😁👍

We call this comfort food because we have had this meal since we were Mini H's age. The plain cheese is good as a kid, but now I add a slice of tomato and some bacon to the sandwich and a dollop of sour cream into the soup. Perfect combo for the dippers of culinary enjoyment.

Homemade tomato soup is so good!! Use different cheese like Gruyère, Fontina, or White Cheddar!! Brie and Smoked Gouda is good too! If you don't have butter , use real mayonnaise to spread on the bread! Not salad dressing ( or salad cream)! Really crisps up the bread!!! Looks good!!!❤❤❤❤❤. Emily from Missouri ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

You can also use mayonnaise in place of butter on the outside of the bread, which adds a little tanginess. I like using 2 cheeses sharp Cheddar and smoked Muenster.

An alternative to butter, for frying the grilled cheese, is to spread the outside of the sandwich with a light coating of mayonnaise. It will brown the bread, nicely.

It’s the simple things in life 👍🏻 So easy and makes a yummy meal

Elana nails it! That's how I've done it for decades! 👍

I'd guess 95% of people in the US just use a can of condensed tomato soup, but this looks awesome. Also. Soupmaker with a blender inside? What?

Still stuns me how every Brit eating show they all take huge bites. JOLLY to name one...

You guys are so genuine. It's refreshing.😅

She is so precious. A two!!

I love that this has sort of become a channel of Brits trying American tastes. I am 40 years old and still love trying new recipes and cuisines from various regions of my own country that I have not yet experienced (I just recently discovered jalapeño corn bread). I am so hopeful that your love of Barbeque will spread throughout your region and inspire a new generation to embrace flavors from all around the globe.

Grilled cheese and tomato soup is amazing, but even better is a grilled ham and cheese sandwich with tomato soup!

Hey guys, you've taken to this cooking thing, like a duck takes to water. You have really upped your cooking skills. I look forward to each new recipe. Congratulations on a great channel.

This is our cold, gray, rainy day comfort food. As I understand it - the English get a little rain from time to time! It's so easy to pull a can of Campbell's Tomato Soup out of the cabinet (Mrs. H you outdid us Yanks making it yourself!), pop the soup & a can of water into a pan to heat as you toast up a sandwich that's magic to young & old alike! When you want a change of pace - try it with rye bread. Grilled cheese sandwiches are GREAT with chili too! Hs, you're becoming so Americanized - I bet you have barbecue sauce or gravy in your veins!!! BLOODY LOVE YOU & YOU'RE UPLIFTING VIDEOS! From Tennessee, with love.

This reaction was very similar to my own when I had a full English or Irish breakfast for the first time as an American living in Europe. Why didn't we know about all those amazing flavor combinations! I feel like the internet and social media have made all the great things about various cultures food so much more accessible, which is amazing!

Kids loved it because it's so good, parents loved it because it's so easy to make. You do beans and toast, we do grilled cheese and tomato soup. Glad you like it.

This happens to be my all time favorite rainy day lunch.

Butter. On. The. Outside. Warned

Grilled cheese with tomato soup is a mandatory lunch on a cold, rainy day. Glad you enjoyed it!

I'm so glad you found a golden treasure of an American staple of winter comfort food. Yes, everyone has a variation. But at the end of the day, it's bread, cheese, butter; and tomato soup. Nothing more, nothing less. This is quintessential American comfort food. I grew up on this.

American cheese is a melty must in grilled cheese!

Baby H prefers her sandwich deconstructed.

I'm 66 yo and grew up with it! Love it still today!

As a kid, we had this at home all the time but with cheddar cheese. Now-a-days I typically make creamy Tuscan tomato as I like the basil in the soup. I often use two types of cheese and sometimes butter the outside of the bread and sprinkle some grated parmesan cheese to make the outside even more crunchy. You can try it many ways. It is fast and easy. We had it all winter long. Good job guys. Now you really are becoming more American by the day.

A quick and easy tip for the grilled cheese sandwiches, just mix two or more different kinds of cheeses. Almost any combination is great! 💙💙💙

Grilled cheese is so versatile. Try adding ingredients between cheese slices. Ham, onion, pickle are go to’s for me. Mayo on the outside of the bread also works well.

Mr. H dancing his "cowboy" 🤠 jig got a giggle out of me! Great job y'all! It looks delicious! Well done! 👍

What I most enjoy about this video, and several others, it the tender guidance you give to Elana. If I ever have children, this is my ideal.

I absolutely LOVE how you include your daughter in on preparing the food. I was taught to cook by four amazing women, my Mother, my Memaw, my Grandma Holmes & my Great Aunt Maggie. I was a toddler when I started also.

Can't wait to see this. I am so honored that you picked this from the comment I left. I already know you enjoyed yourselves.

I love watching Elana's face!! She is so focused! She will, no doubt, become a fabulous cook!

I tend to use gouda, meunster, havarti and white cheddar. Not always all together but a mix of two. Also, if you add fresh basil to that tomato soup, it changes the flavor dramatically… in a good way

One of favorite comfort food meals. My niece loves it so much she had it as an appetizer at her wedding. Shot glass of soup and a small square grilled cheese stuck on the glass like a garnish. So glad you like it!

White bread buttered on the outside and lots of American cheese slices on the inside. And I love Campbells tomato soup. ( made with water not milk.) I eat this at least once a week. ❤

Grilled cheese and tomato soup has been a staple fast meal in my house for 70 years . When I was young white bread and American cheese was the way to go as we grew and got older Rye bread or rye and Pumpernickel bread became more common also a mix of american cheese and gruyiare or just swiss cheese pairs nicely with the soup.

Don't change how you pronounce words...It is part of your charm! That, and the fact that you seem so genuine...I really love your channel!

Love a homemade tomato soup with grilled cheese. The grilled cheese sandwich is delicious with whatever cheese you prefer. It looked delicious and so glad you enjoyed it. The little one is such a good helper!

I make the soup with half water and half milk. I’ve tried every other way and this is the best to me. Everyone has their favorite way to concoct their soup. Love this❤.

I love when his inner child came out. That's the magic of Grilled cheese and tomato soup combo.

🥹 Elana enthusiastically repeating measurements and food ideas is so precious! You go little H!

Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches or tomato soup with white cheddar popcorn in it, are my 2 ultimate comfort foods. If I'm not feeling well or the weather is gloomy, nothing beats a bowl of tomato soup one of the way I've mentioned previously. Sooooo good. It's like a warm hug.

these are really good cold, rainy day. p.s. really sharp cheddar is the way to go

As @artistnyc said, I've never had tomato soup from scratch, but every Sunday evening we had Campbell's tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches while we watched Disney. That was my childhood, many. many years ago.

During a cold winter or late fall day there is nothing better than Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup. It's the perfect comfort food

I was amazed at how big your girl has grown, made me realize how long I had been watching your channel.

This is the ultimate "when you are sick" meal.

Try it for a nice midday meal on a cold winter day. It's warm & filling but light at the same time.

you want to spread the butter on the bread like toast before you put it in the skillet or on the griddle. also, mix the butter with a little bit of garlic and some chopped up basil and use mozzarella and/or provolone for a fun italian style grilled cheese. that's fun with a little marinara as a dipping sauce.

Dunking the sandwich is the right way with me too,lol.

That is absolutely a classic combo. I love grill cheese with a creamy soup. My favorite is American cheese with a bisque. The best thing about grilled cheese and soup is you can change it up how ever you like. Maybe pepper jack cheese on Texas toast and a Mexican been soup. The combination or endless. It is the best when you are sick. 10 out of 10 video! :)

Oh, I know what I’m having for lunch tomorrow. Nothing better than a grilled cheese and tomato soup! I like to experiment with different kind of cheese, also multiple kinds of cheese on one sandwich. And just to kick it up a notch, Italian seasoning in the soup, and sometimes on the sandwich.

both sides of my family have been in the states before the revolution.... my mom only tasted a grilled cheese dipped in tomato soup 10 years ago. I only hope you used a good cheddar!!!!

The epitome of American comfort food. When my sister and were left on our own as teenagers, we would almost always make this.

Excellent, and yes of course it was from scratch! Wtg on another home run! xox It is such a delicious combo!

Yes, grill cheese and tomato soup are the greatest lunch combination in a kids life. They even had tomato soup and grilled cheese in The Devil Wears Prada.

Grilled cheese croutons....Yes! Especially if there is an actual "main course" with your tomato soup. Make grilled cheese, cut them into crouton sized cubes and sprinkle them on top of a bowl of the tomato soup.

Alana is pro level!! She does exactly what I do with the second half of my grilled cheese - small bites dropped right into the soup…legend! ❤😊. Thanks for the share!

Alana has had Texas brisket. Her standards are high. 😂. I just had grilled cheese last night for dinner. I added ham to mine 😋

You know somethin is good when it makes someone dance 😂

American classic

As others have said, kudos for making the soup from scratch! Impressive! Definitely cold weather lunch or when you're feeling under the weather. Glad you liked it!

I am 65 and have been eating these all my life. A few years ago, I learned a trick. Instead of butter on the bread, use mayonnaise. It will create a beautiful golden brown, crunch sandwich!

1 of the Top Cold Weather , Stay at Home Meals EVER . Well done Mrs. H. Try it with a Smoked Gouda Cheese someday.

I like the way she says tomato!!!!

When we were young and getting ready to go out trick or treating for Halloween, this combination was the only one my brother and I would sit still for. So my mom made it every Halloween for many years.

I'm drooling over your soup! We always use Campbell's condensed soup. :) Truthfully, we get the soup from Aldi unless Sam's Club has a good price on Campbell's. When we first got married, stores would have Campbells on special, 10 for $1.00. ONE! And now it's over a buck a can unless you get a good deal at Sam's club. Either way, either brand, I'm sure it's nothing on that lovely soup you made! And a soup maker! Never heard of such a critter. Looks like something I need to look out for. I still like to put the butter on my bread, then you know you're completely covered. In my part of the world, we called them, "Toasted cheese," sandwiches, as well as grilled cheese. Not everyone from other parts of the US know what a "toasted cheese" sandwich is, though. We like mixing up cheeses, making sure to have gooey cheeses on the top and bottom of our cheese stack so it all sticks together.

Classic comfort food. Especially on rainy or wintry days.

Atlanta here. As a rule I do not watch any "family channels" but my partner loves y'all. Neither he nor I have ever eaten tomato soup made like this but we are certain it would taste wonderful. Do y'all have family quilts? Does it mean the same thing it means here? In the lower Appalachias the same quilts are kept in the family and are heirlooms. Their design is "like the Scottish" based on the family ancestry. It was also used as communication for slaves fleeing slave states. People would hang a quilt out to dry and believe it was just an heirloom but it contained codes to tip off those fleeing that their house was safe. In the 80's the AIDS quilt was created and now most of the panels are kept in Atlanta.

grilled cheese and tomato soup, is best enjoyed on a cold rainy/snowy day that all you want to do is stay home and wrap yourself in a blanket. one of my all time favorite comfort foods, glad you all enjoy. Keep up the work Family you are doing great.

I have never seen a soup maker like that! It is a great kitchen gadget. I tried spreading mayo on the outside of bread because I saw it on RU-vid. Actually worked rather well.

When grilling sandwiches don't use butter, use mayonase. Add cream cheese and chopped jalapeño in addition to the cheddar or american Tomato soup with milk not water

Nicely done ya'll!! I'm so glad you enjoyed them! Such a classic American lunch. If you like a little kick try it with a pepper jack cheese. And Mrs. H you can say tomato any way you want, we don't mind at all!

Now imagine. You've had a bad day or are feeling unwell. Nice cozy spot and that dish

I don't eat a grilled cheese without soup. Usually Campbells tomato bisque. Made with a can of stewed tomatoes and half and half. 👍

The perfect rainy day lunch. I like to sprinkle a tiny bit of garlic salt on my sandwich before I grill it.
