This chunky home-style tomato soup is loaded with the flavors of rich roasted tomatoes, basil and Parmesan cheese. Pair it up with our White Cheddar Grilled Cheese sandwich for a hearty soup & sandwich meal.

Why Try? You'll never again settle for canned tomato soup.

Foodie Byte: • Roasting diced tomatoes adds a rich sweet caramelized flavor not to soup. • Pressed for time? Eliminate the roasting step and save 20minutes on your time. • For a chunky tomato soup with bold contemporary flavor, try fire-roasted dice tomatoes, available in the canned tomato aisle.
