Warm up with a bowl of this Italian Tortellini Soup! It comes together quickly! #ProgressoEats

We're officially in the second month of the new year .... how are those resolutions working out for you?! While I feel like we're making progress to reach our goals in the Love Bakes Good Cakes house, I have to admit, that some days are tougher than others! While I feel like we're making better decisions when it comes to our diet and meal planning, I know we are falling short when it comes to getting enough activity! But, we're still working on that one! :)

If there's one thing I've noticed, eating healthy takes a lot of time and preparation! When I write out our menu every week, I try to make better choices by choosing leaner cuts of meat, adding meals with more colorful veggies, and by limiting fats and sugars. With Progresso™, it's easy to stay on track! They have a variety of delicious soups you can stock up on - or you can use the convenient Progresso™ Cooking Stocks to create your own delicious recipes, too! While I enjoy the Progresso™ ready-to-serve soup options for a quick weekday lunch, I prefer to make my own soup for dinner!
In the Love Bakes Good Cakes house, we love soup and eat it year round. It's just so comforting, isn't it?! As I noted with some of our resolutions for 2016, we are focusing on incorporating more veggies in our diet. I have to be honest .... kale is not a favorite with the kiddos, although they will eat it (begrudgingly, of course!). However, they love it in this Italian Tortellini Soup - maybe the fact that it's cooked in Progresso™ Cooking Stock helps because it adds so much flavor! I love that it tastes just like homemade stock - without all the work! If you think soup needs all day to simmer for the flavors to blend, this soup makes a quick and satisfying meal - all in about 30 minutes! Progresso™ Cooking Stock cuts down on the cook time while still providing that great slow-cooked homemade taste!



I also want to let you know about a special contest, too!
