You’ll find fewer greater pairings than soup and a sandwich, particularly at this time of year as the temperatures begin to plummet.
They are the ultimate comfort food and so many tempting combinations are out there to choose from.
A classic ham and cheese teamed with a creamy tomato or butternut squash soup, or a club sandwich with a vegetable broth, narrowing down your pick may prove a challenge (to say the least).
