TOMATO POTATO CHEDDAR SOUP
This is a favorite of my DH. He always askes for this one. It is meant for Vermont White Cheddar, but any strong cheddar will do. It does take some time, but it is well worth it. Makes a large batch. Given to me by my aunt.

Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your soup will be.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes before adding them to the soup intensifies their flavor and gives the soup a smoky depth of flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When roasting the tomatoes, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. This will help them roast evenly and prevent them from steaming.
- Use a good quality cheddar cheese: The type of cheddar cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for a sharp cheddar cheese that melts well.
- Season the soup to taste: Don't be afraid to add more salt, pepper, or other seasonings to taste. The soup should be flavorful and well-balanced.
