Soup and a Party for My Love!

February 9, 2012 By Shelley Zurek 6 Comments

Bartolli Meal Soups can make your Weekday Special!

Frozen Meal Soups can Make  the Evening a Little less Stress for Both of US!

My Life is a zoo!  And my Husband’s is worse.  He is working on a major electric vehicle project  for one of the Big 3 car companies.  Even though, he is the sweetest man..he has been burning the candles at both ends, so I decided to make at least one weeknight special!  The only problem is…I only had one hour to prepare and a LOT to do.  How could I get it all done?

Unfortunately, it had snowed quite hard and the driveway was full of snow.  I knew if my husband came home and found that, he’d be out there shoveling and snowblowing  (he’s Polish…he just has to have EVERYTHING just so!)  So in order to make the night extra special..I SHOVELED THE DRIVEWAY..sort of.  Okay..don’t be shocked.  I even have pictures to prove it:

Consider Frozen Meal Soups as a Real Time Saver and for REAL FLAVOR

Well, 40 minutes of that Nonsense  (WHY DO I LIVE HERE???) , left me a mere 20 minutes to get a hearty dinner on the table for my 6’6″ husband, who comes home hungry as a bear.  Quickly, I made some breadsticks and popped them into the oven.  For the main dish,  I used Bertolli Premium Meal Soup in Chicken Minestrone.  The Meal soup was a breeze to prepare.  I just put it into a sauce pan on the stove and added 1 cup of water. After the mixture came to a boil, I reduced the heat and covered it for another 5 minutes stirring occasionally.  In between the soup meal, I set the table, got out some beverages, and put the breadsticks out to cool.

Toward the end of my 20  minute whirlwind, my husband walked in and the first thing he said was, “Wow, what smells so good?”  Then he was all smiles because he didn’t have to shovel the driveway.  So 20 minutes from the time I came in from outdoors, I was already to serve my big gorgeous husband a wonderful Bertolli Chicken Minestrone Soup Meal.   WHICH HE LOVED!    We both agreed that this soup was the best store bought soup of any kind that we had ever eaten.  My husband said that if he didn’t know, he’d swear the Bertolli Soup Meals was homemade by ME!  He felt it was that good..apparently I am quite the little SUZY HOMEMAKER in his mind!!  Take a look at the two beautiful hearty bowls of soup it made!!

Frozen Bertolli Meal Soups can Satisfy all your Family Members

I loved the fact that I can keep this frozen soup on hand and serve a wonderful hearty soup with a homemade taste–Anytime!  I also thought I would pick up some of the Soup Meals for my aging parents or some people from church that I take meals to…wouldn’t that be convenient for them?  Meal Soups  solves the problem about what to serve for dinner when you have no time or energy  to create a homecooked dinner!  I also think my 3 adult sons would love this..they are just a tad lazy when it comes to cooking but don’t mind heating up something.  I found Bertolli Meal Soups very filling, my boys can eat a ton!
