When you think of classic combinations in the food world, soup and sandwiches are high up on the list. Who knows who invented the pairing or why we eat them together, but it’s easy to see why steaming, soothe-the-soul soup would partner well with a sandwich (usually on crisp bread with gooey cheese). Both are super easy to prepare on weeknights or can be used as leftovers in a brown bag lunch. Check out our recommended combinations.
