Recipe: Green Goddess Soup and Pesto Mozzarella Grilled Cheese


IMG_2880

You might think I'm crazy for even so much as suggesting soup as a viable dinner option right now, but this Green Goddess Soup is worth the mere fifteen minutes of eat it takes to make it! And it pairs perfect with this pesto mozzarella grilled cheese sandwich.  For the recipe, check out my post on Marcus Samuelsson's blog!

I am also submitting this to Deb over at Kahakai Kitchen for Souper Sundays!

  9. Wow. Pesto mozza sandwhich equals insanely good cheesiness. That sounds perfect. Nice looking lovely green soup too, even possibly as a cold soup...like gazpacho?

  11. That grilled cheese looks incredible- and I don't eat much gluten or dairy. This is definitely one of those "well, just this once" times.

  14. I don't think you're crazy to make soup! (Then again, it is currently 64F at my house in Silicon Valley. THAT is kind of crazy.) I think I would go for that sandwich, first, though--it looks amazing!

  23. Even though it's 100 degrees, sounds good.

  24. I love a soup you can make in less than 15 minutes. And that's a fabulous looking sandwich to go with it! xx

  25. I've never heard of green goddess soup but it sounds fantastic! The pesto mozzarella would be great as a smaller toast or open faced sandwich too, or with some tomatoes added in - yum!

  30. It is winter here so yes please to soup - but I will eat soup at any time of year - and same with sandwiches - that pesto looks amazing

    ReplyDelete
  31. The soup looks great Joanne but since here we are facing a really hot summer I am going to stick with this beautiful sandwich and save the soup for the cold winter days ahead of us!

  32. Oh, both of these things are screaming for me to eat them for lunch today. There's nothing better in the world than pesto and grilled cheese...except maybe tomato jam. ;) I am having a very weird and unhealthy relationship with tomato jam these days.

  33. This is a rustic BEAUT!!! Lovely summer flavors that I'm craaaaving now =D

  34. oh man, i just made this and it is soooooo good. it used up 3 veggies from my CSA share this week! (yay thunderstorms for cooling it down enough to make soup!)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Honestly, making soup seems loads easier than attempting to turn on the oven. That grilled cheese is mouthwatering!

    ReplyDelete
  36. did you eat that whole thing?
    god I love your appetite

    ReplyDelete
  37. 15 minutes to soup? Love it!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Oh my goodness, I've been making pesto mozzarella grilled cheese sandwiches and they are amazing! Yummmmm!

  39. Dear Joanne, This is what I call soup and sandwich. Blessings dearest. Catherine xo

  40. Wishing this meal to be my lunch tomorrow. Both dishes look healthy, hearty, and absolutely delish. I rather want to spend 30 minutes cooking this than any take out food!

  41. That looks so good, much wilder than my momma's grilled cheese.

    Are you having any comments about your left margin cutting into the body of your posts? I'm seeing some clipping on Firefox.

  42. They both look amazing! Heading over to see the recipes. The grilled cheese looks so good with the pesto!

  43. I made a cold green soup this week--this warm version looks even more enticing, as well as that sandwich. Thanks for sharing with Souper Sundays. ;-)
