 (I used garlic baguette)

Toast the baquettes in the oven under the broiler

Portion the soup in 5 oven proof bowls.

Place 2 toasted slices of the baguettes on top of the soup.

 

Cover with your favorite cheese.

 I used mozzarella and cheddar.

Parmesan is great also.

Place under the broiler until cheese is melted.

I used Mexican cheese because it was left over from a Tacos recipe.
