Yes… the perfect twosome!

I've never heard of slumgullion but that's what I ate weekly growing up! I still make it for myself but I use ground turkey instead of beef and I mix water with the tomato soup instead of milk.

I think the very best way to eat tomato soup is with a gooey grilled cheese sandwich. (Too bad there's no salivating smiley to insert here...)
:still_dreaming: it says 'still dreaming' but to me it looks like it's salivating (and then there is this creepy little guy :drool:_)

Being Italian-American, our cooked tomato intake came only from "gravy" (that's a long-cooked tomato sauce for macaroni (pasta) to you uninitiated). Never had tomato soup as a kid. My husband loves Campbell's Tomato Bisque soup which I buy for him once in a while. It's not bad. I serve it with a grind or two of black pepper, some grated parmigianno cheese and a swirl of extra virgin olive oil to jazz it up. Hey, I'm Italian; what can I say?
molto deliziosa zuppa?

I'd never heard of slumgullion before but the picture and a recipe I found looks like what we call American Chop Suey. It doesn't have tomato soup, though. Not a fan of tomato soup myself but love American Chop Suey. We add a lot of garlic and diced red peppers and a dash of red pepper flakes along with the other ingredients so maybe that makes it different from slumgullion.

After looking at the photo in your link, I really want some of this now! - it is SO good (like comfort food for me on a cold day).
I just tried making this last night. I tried so hard to remember my mom's recipe and started with a link to a german recipe. Which is what it would ahve been as my grandmother lived in germany for many years and I'm positive this is where this came into our family from. But, the version I used was just to0 thick and tomato-ey. Hers wasn't a soup, but it wasn't a thick pasta meal either.
