As of today, it is officially winter!  For me, winter equals wearing warm fuzzy socks, snuggling under a blanket, and a cup of peppermint tea.  Basically anything that keeps me warm and cozy.  Food-wise, for me, the ultimate warm and cozy winter food is tomato soup with grilled cheese.  And, perfect for Christmas, this is a red, green, and white meal!

When I visit India, one of my favorite things to eat at a restaurant is tomato soup.  I have loved it since I was a little girl:  the freshness of the tomatoes (the ones we get here in the US just don't compare), the dollop of full-fat cream, and the big handmade croutons floating at the surface of the bowl.  If you've ever had this, you know what I'm talking about, and you know why tomato soup in India is the best!

I obviously cannot replicate soup from India here in the US (again, the tomatoes over there...); but I do my best by making it at home from scratch.  I also include a roasted red bell pepper to my soup because it adds a sweetness which is a nice balance to the acidity of the tomatoes.
