Instructions

In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, basil, and oregano. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth.
Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
Spread butter on one side of each bread slice.
On the other side of 4 bread slices, evenly distribute the cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses, chopped basil, and garlic powder.
Top each with the remaining bread slices, butter side facing up.
Place the sandwiches on the griddle or skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serve the grilled cheese sandwiches with the tomato soup for dipping.
