In a small saucepan, whisk together the tomato puree, chicken bone broth, garlic powder, dried basil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Bring the soup to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, then whisk in the collagen peptides until completely dissolved.
While the soup simmers, place the cottage cheese in a small blender or food processor and blend until it is completely smooth and creamy.
Spread the blended cottage cheese onto one side of each slice of gluten-free bread, then top one side with the shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
Close the sandwich and lightly spread the ghee on the outside of both bread slices.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grill the sandwich for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese center is melted.
Pour the hot tomato soup into a bowl and serve immediately with the warm grilled cheese sandwich.
