Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes | Servings: 4 (2 dippers and 1 cup of soup per serving)

Ingredients:

3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons Carlini Pure Olive Oil
14.5 ounces Happy Harvest Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Happy Harvest Tomato Paste
1 cup Simply Nature Organic Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1 cup Friendly Farms Unsweetened Original Almondmilk
ground Stonemill Sea Salt Grinder, to taste
ground Stonemill Black Peppercorn Grinder, to taste
8 slices L’oven Fresh White Bread
8 slices Happy Farms Deli Sliced Cheddar Cheese
2 tablespoons Countryside Creamery Unsalted Butter

Directions:

Heat oven to 400°. In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, bell peppers, garlic and oil. Place on baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
In a medium pot, add vegetable mixture, tomatoes, tomato paste and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer tomato mixture to a blender and process until smooth. Return mixture to the pot and add almond milk. Cook for another 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, remove crust from each slice of bread. Using a rolling pin, roll each slice to a 1/4-inch thickness. Place 1 slice of cheese on bread. Roll tightly and reserve. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
In a medium pan over low heat, melt butter. Place dipper in a pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until dipper is golden brown.
Serve dippers with soup.

TIP: Room temperature cheese works best for the perfect roll.
