    Your springtime version of tomato soup and grilled cheese.

    What is a creamy vegetable soup without something toasty and cheesy to go with it? This sandwich is as delicious as it is easy to prepare and makes an excellent companion to a bowl of Creamy Asparagus Soup on a cool April evening. Briny olives, tangy sun-dried tomatoes and mild goat cheese come together to bring a little unexpected pizazz to an easy weeknight soup and sandwich supper. Add a chilled glass of white wine and maybe some strawberries for dessert and you've got yourself some serious spring hygge.

    Ingredients

    • 8 slices of country or sourdough bread
    • 1 4- ounce package of herbed goat cheese
    • ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil chopped

    • Butter for spreading

    Instructions

    • Spread goat cheese liberally onto 4 slices of the bread.
    • Sprinkle sun-dried tomatoes and olives over goat cheese.
    • Cover with a second slice of bread.
    • Butter the sides of the bread that are facing the outside.
    • Heat large skillet over medium heat.  Add sandwiches and cook until they are toasty brown and cheese is warm and melted, flipping occasionally and pressing down with the back of a spatula to ensure that the buttered bread is making contact with the skillet.
