hehe,

I have never had tomato soup before, and the other night my son ordered tomato basil soup from middle Eastern pace we were eating.

Anyhow I took a bite and LOVED it! I'm so mad I didn't have this for my liquid phase after banding!!!

Anyhow, it's new to me and I love it and I tend to overdo things when I find something I like LOL

I've have tomato basil soup for breakfast @ 8 AM, lunch , and Dinner 8:30 pm! With b~fast and lunch I had grilled cheese w/ the soup.

LOL

I'm addicted

I always thought tomato soup would taste like tomato paste or V8...but it's good!

Nana~

And, some more bad news to go with that..........just a plain little grilled cheese sandwich is about 300 calories....and about 30 grams of carbs. And 30-50 grams is all I allow myself in a whole day!!

Sandybells,

Recipe sounds great.I too have given up pizza.But this sounds great.Thanks for sharing

Yes, That pizza recipe does sound yummy! I will have to try that I too miss pizza sometimes, well when the family is eating it lol.

I eat toasted cheese sandwich in the toaster oven, no butter no grease in the pan just toasted cheese.

I use fit day and my sandwich is~

2 slices thin sliced white bread, and one slice Imitation cheese

Tomato and lobster bisque. Mmmmmm...

I make good old Campbells concentrated tomato soup and add 1/2 can of water and 1/2 can of skim milk. Pre-banding, I LOVED tons of ritz crackers in it but now I'm satisfied to have it plain... very filling and so good.

The soups to go are a lot higher in calories and much more expensive.

OMG! I can not believe you are just enjoying tomato soup. I love it!!

It is great when you are just chilled to the bone as well, better than coco!

NANA!

if you like tomato soup, I have something for you. Trader Joes has an Organic Red bell pepper and tomato soup , awwww its to die for , I found it while I was on my liquid stage. Now that I am on solids I use it to marinate chicken in , You guys have to check it out

********** for all the tomato soup lovers out there*************

Where do you get this Trader's Joe soup????

Trader Joes lol they dont have any near you

I guess not, I have never heard of it! I am in poor behind the times Michigan!! lol...

oh ok , Im telling you the best soup i have ever had. I think you need to write a stern letter to the city and demand that they put in a trader joes lol Its actully like a health food store. A little over priced but they have some great stuff there

I would consider myself a "soup nut." I can't get enough of the stuff. Favorite is Trader Joes Corn Chowder.

Tomato soup is my all time fav...........sour cream? Parmesan cheese??? omg I have to try that!!! I usually have mine in a mug and drink it....goes good with the grilled cheese. Hmmm can I eat grilled cheese (ever) after having a band??? (i know not right away...just wondering if I have to lick it---i mean kiss it goodbye.......LOL:p

grilled cheese sandwhich dipped into piping hot tomoto soup is my FAVORITE comfort food. Even over french fries. And I love me some french fries.

i will have to see if we have that store around. I've not seen it before.

Maybe they do onle orders :cool:

My friend just turned me onto Bear Creek Soups and i am sooo hooked. they come in a pouch and you mix with water - they are so incredibly good - i've tried the potatoe and cheese, tomato, hot and sour (beyond to die for) and a few others. i can't believe how good they are - the pouches make a lot (around 8 cups) but im sure you could cut them down. yeah, no trader joes in my neck of the woods (utah) either but i bet you could get the bear creek in regular grocery store.
