    18 Recipes to Eat With Tomato Soup

    Simple yet satisfying, tomato soup is one of the most classic comfort foods around. However, as the existence of the grilled cheese sandwich proves, tomato soup is always better when it's served alongside a contrasting dish or dipping vehicle. The key is to work with foods that will complement tomato soup's trademark acidic and slightly sweet notes. Lighter sides, such as green salads, can hold their own against tomato soup without compromising its flavor. Or, kick the indulgence factor up a notch and opt for heartier foods, such as mozzarella sticks, risotto, potatoes, or even meatloaf. Scroll through for 20 ideas of what to eat with tomato soup, including simple salads, twice-baked potatoes, and, of course, grilled cheese sandwiches.

<p>Chicken soup is taken to the next level with the addition of jalapenos, cilantro, olive oil and avocado in this exquisite meal. Similar to olive oil, avocados are in the category of "good fats," since they are high in monounsaturated fat. These healthier fats are a better choice than corn or vegetable oils rich in omega-6 polyunsaturated fats, which may trigger the body to produce pro-inflammatory chemicals when consumed in excess.</p>

This soup takes full advantage of the whole broccoli — from stalk to floret. And that's good news, since the benefits of broccoli are found in the stems, too. Part of the family of cruciferous vegetables, broccoli is high in sulforaphane, a molecule which is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. The American Institute for Cancer Research says there is convincing evidence that cruciferous vegetables like broccoli may help reduce the risk of lung, colorectal and esophageal cancer.
