Soup and Grilled Cheese

Craig and I went to a play last night, so we needed a quick meal.  I found a recipe for butternut squash-cannellini soup on epicurious, and made grilled cheese.  The soup had gotten rave reviews, but I thought it was only OK, even though I had really tried to follow the recipe.  It was better after I added some ground thyme and topped it with roasted salted pepitas.  The sandwiches were good though.  I steamed some spinach and squeezed out the water, then mixed it with a little leftover leek sauce from Friday to up the veggie quotient.  I used sharp provolone cheese, and lacking  a sandwich press, I pulled out the George Foreman, so I'm sure they were fat-free!
