Well… maybe only one is Souper Duper and the other is just souper. ;~) Here’s the deal. . .
The Super Duper Contest
Progresso contacted me to ask if I’d be willing to spread the news about their “Souper You Debut” contest for the chance to win a full makeover in New York City.
Did you hear that?
A FULL MAKEOVER IN NEW YORK CITY!
Plus roundtrip airfare, a two-night stay in a NYC hotel, a $1,000 wardrobe shopping spree and personal consultation at a New York department store.
DUDE! I want to win! :)
To enter all you need to do is:
- Go to www.Progresso.com/SouperYou to learn more and enter the contest
- Submit your essay (200 characters or less) telling Progresso why you love Progresso Light or 100 Calorie Soups and why you would like a makeover
- Submit a photo of yourself that visually reinforces the theme of your essay
Right after I publish this I’m totally off to enter it myself! And if any of you win I’m making you promise to take me along. ;~)
The Super Contest
The second contest, not quite as spectacular but still fun! Fellow bloggers can enter to win the progresso prize pack displayed above. It includes the Progresso mug (VERY cool), a digital jump rope and two cans of Progresso Soup.
To enter all you need to do is copy and paste the code below and put it in a post as your entry. It can be it’s own post or just tacked on to one you already plan to write. Then simply leave a comment here with a link to the post so I can check it out. I’ll pick a random winner next week.

I Published a Cook Book!

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

I've recently discovered the amazing combination of cheese and dried cherries. I know, it sounds weird, but seriously… good! The other day I smeared some Laughing Cow Light Swiss on Cucumber slices and then topped with a cherry. It was a fun, sweet twist on standard cheese and crackers. Well, cheese [...] -
If I was a good blogger this idea would have been published BEFORE the Super Bowl not during it. I made these today to have a little fun. Surprisingly, The Husband liked them even though he didn't eat more than one. Why? Because he's strange like [...] -
If you read my weight loss blog you know I'm battling a bit of back and neck pain right now. I'm starting to feel a little better but those first few days where rough. Being the head chef of the household, this meant we ordered in a couple of times. I'm [...] -
I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...]

I wasn’t going to … and then I remembered that quite a lot of Progresso soups are gluten free now (hooray!) and those that aren’t can still be enjoyed by my Tom :)

Ugggh! Have you ever read the ingredients on the Progresso Light can? After reading some of the essays featured on their site, it looks like most people just care about losing weight instead of getting healthy. I guess that’s why WW packaged products are so popular even though they have enough chemicals to fuel a lab.
http://www.blogtolose.com/profiles/blogs/progresso-soup-contest
Thanks Roni!
I hear you! That’s why I’m a fan of Dr. McDougalls Soups (http://ronisweigh.com/2009/11/product-review-dr-mcdougalls-ready-to-serve-soup.html) But I can’t find them everywhere. Canned soup like progresso are one of the few processed foods I still eat and buy when on sale. And don’t get me started on WW products. I was buying them when I first started but yikes! I haven’t touched them in years! I’m hoping with their shift to the momentum plan that they would come out with better products. But I doubt it. :(
The New York contest is awesome and totally fabulous. Would love to join but for many reasons, I can’t. Good luck to everyone instead!!!

I want to love Progresso soups, but I don’t. They are too salty and just plain nasty.
http://www.lauralovinglife.com/2010/01/progresso-light-soup.html
Thanks Roni!
For me, canned soups like Progresso are a way better alternative than a fast food restaurant if I’m too busy for a proper lunch.

i’m in…..
http://weightwatchermama.blogspot.com/2010/01/soup-contest.html
I eat Progresso 0 Point soup every day for lunch. I have 1/2 can of soup and a sandwhich. They taste great and they’re a great filler – especially now when it’s so chilly!
I entered the contest on my NEW blog! (I’m excited to finally start one up myself – I’m a dork!)
http://instaceyslife.blogspot.com/2010/01/exercise-goals.html
These days I’d druther make my own soup, but if I do buy canned and sometimes I still do, I like Progresso soups better than most brands. Haven’t yet tried their light variety.
But naturally, the mug is cool regardless of what soup I’d put in it and who can resist a digital jump rope. So I’m in!
