Youll love Tomato Soup with Cheddar Bay Dumplings. An easy and comforting homemade tomato soup topped with fluffy Cheddar Bay dumplings.A FUN TWIST ON TOMATO SOUPA few years ago, I developed a recipe for white chicken chili with cornbread dumplings and it has been one of your favorites ever since. So, it got me thinking when I was making my homemade tomato soup I should add dumplings to this too. And it ended up being a match made in heaven! This was so, so good and it really is a whole meal. Perfect for those colder winter days!FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:What else can I add to this? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce for a little heat. Stir in fresh basil or parsley at the end for added flavor. Can I thicken the soup? If you prefer a thicker soup, let it simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes before adding the dumplings. Can I use store bought tomato soup instead? If you have a store bought tomato soup that you enjoy, you could use that instead and just make these biscuits to use. But, I will say that this is a really simple tomato soup recipe to make. Can I change up the biscuit mix? If you dont want to use Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix, any biscuit mix will work. You could use Homemade Bisquick Mix (about 2 cups, just dont pack the measuring cup) or cornbread, like I do when making my White Chicken Chili with Cornbread Dumplings. If you want to make the dumplings like the cheddar bay biscuits, you can add the shredded cheese to the biscuit mix. Additionally, if wanting to use regular biscuit mix but wanting them like the cheddar bay biscuits, you can add a teaspoon of garlic powder with the shredded cheddar cheese it calls for on the back of the box, or you can just make some totally Homemade Cheddar Bay Biscuits from scratch. What can I serve with Tomato Soup with Cheddar Bay Dumplings? Since this recipe has dumplings and soup, I feel like its a pretty good and filling meal in itself. If I were looking for something else to serve with it, you cant go wrong with a big, green salad. Can I make this soup in the Slow Cooker? You could make this in the Crock Pot, but youll need to saut the onions first as they dont always soften up in the slow cooker enough. Combine everything in a 4-5 quart Slow Cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Then add the dumpling dough during the last 30-60 minutes of cooking. How do I store leftovers and whats the best way to reheat them? Store leftover soup and dumplings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat, adding a splash of chicken stock or water if the soup thickens too much. Avoid microwaving leftovers the dumplings, as they may become tough. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)unsalted buttersweet onion you can use a regular yellow onion but I think a sweet onion works best here.garlic I prefer fresh garlic for best flavor but if all you have is the jarred stuff, you can use that. You may just want to use a little more to get a bit more flavor.all-purpose flourchicken stock you can use low or no sodium options if you are concerned about sodium intake. Just remember that you can add more salt later if you think its necessary, but you cant take it back out. Use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock to make the soup vegetarian.peeled whole tomatoes do not drain them. You want the juice. I really like the whole tomatoes for tomato soup. Maybe its just me but I find they really bring the best flavor to tomato soup.sugar you can skip this if you want or use a sugar substitute but this just helps with the strong acidity from the tomatoes. Some folks think a little baking soda can also help (I havent personally tried that though.)Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix plus the ingredients needed that is listed on the package, cup shredded cheddar cheese and cup melted butter. For this recipe, I typically smear the garlic butter over the dumplings, but if you dont want to do that, you can just dump the garlic powder in with the biscuit mix itself.*only one can of whole tomatoes shown hereHOW TO MAKE TOMATO SOUP WITH CHEDDAR BAY DUMPLINGSMelt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
