Caprese Soup

You all know that I looovvee soup! One soup that I have always really wanted to like is french onion soup. But you know that I do not like onions so I don't eat french onion soup. I saw this recipe for caprese soup recently and thought, now there is an idea! A way for me to enjoy the yummy, cheesy goodness of the french onion soup in a way that I would like. I knew I had to try this.

My parents have been bringing out loads of my stuff from all my years and home and college, everytime they come out. In one of the boxes I came across the soup crocks that you see in the picture. I was super excited about them. I know they are generally used for french onion soup, so I knew I would have to use them for this recipe. I was excited to use them what they are made for!

This soup was really good. And actually pretty filling. Soups can sometimes not be so filling for me anyway. This was also really easy and quick to make because you can use pre-made ingredients  I really enjoyed this new twist on an old favorite.
