I don’t buy many canned soups. I’m more of a scratch-cooking kind of girl, but I do keep some on hand for those hectic nights when I need something warm and quick for a family supper. When our kids were small, the skinny noodles with an occasional cube of “chicken” would cut it, but my hearty-eaters definitely need something a little more substantial, nowadays. Progresso soups have chunks of vegetables and meat, they’re well seasoned and they taste good. They are a better option for our family, at this stage of life.
Progresso wants to help us meet our "shaping up" goals for 2011.
I recently received the opportunity to review some Progresso Soup flavors that we hadn’t tried before. I had no idea that they actually sell 40 different varieties, so it was a treat to try them. The soups I received were “light”, meaning they had fewer than 100 calories per serving. They are being promoted as part of Progresso’s Souper You™ Debut” contest! From January 3rd through March 16th, you can visit Progresso on Facebook to enter for the chance to win a full makeover in New York City. I could definitely use that kind of pampering and an all new look.
The soup flavors we tried were: Light Chicken Noodle, Light New England Clam Chowder, Light Vegetable Noodle, Light Santa Fe Chicken and Light Beef Pot Roast. My husband is the only person in our household that eats Clam Chowder and it MUST be the New England variety. He is picky about his chowder and he gave this one two-thumbs up, so I was very impressed. He told me that being light, it was not as thick as the clam chowder he is used to, but the flavor was spot on. The other flavors were polished off in no time, for lunches, over a few days when I wasn’t feeling well and not doing much cooking. There’s no question these soups aren’t homemade, but there is also no question that Progresso soups far exceed the average canned soup fare. We were well-satisfied.
Great Progresso Prize pack. (Note that one can of soup is included in the prize, though two are pictured.)
To help motivate you for a “Souper New You” and to help you with your goals for shaping up in 2011, Busy-at-Home readers can PRINT A $1.00 off 4 cans coupon for Progresso Soup, plus thanks to My Blog Spark and Progresso, one lucky reader is going to win a prize pack, to help them shape up in 2011, containing:
