Did you know that January is National Soup Month? It makes perfect sense because much of the country is still experiencing chilly weather. There’s not a better meal to warm up with than a hearty bowl of soup!
This post is in partnership with Idahoanรยฎ Foods. All opinions are my own.
Personally, I’m a fan of thick and creamy soupsรย with potatoes and/or cheese….like the one’s you get at a steakhouse! The only downside to getting a really good bowl of restaurant quality soup is the, often tedious, process of getting everyone togetherรย to go out to dinner, or spending a ridiculous amount of time in front of the stove to prepare it from scratch. Neither of which are particularly inviting when my soup cravings hit.
Idahoanรยฎรย must understand my dilemma. They have delicious Premium Steakhouseรยฎ Potato Soups that can be prepared in just 5 minutes and taste like restaurant-quality soup.รย Yes, you read that rightรขโฌโ 5 minutes on the stove-topรย with water!
Because it’s National Soup Month, I just had to try Idahoanรยฎรย Premium Steakhouseรยฎรย Potato Soups for myself.รย There are four delicious varieties: Cheddar Broccoli,รย Creamy Potato, Loaded Potatoรย and Three Cheese Chipotle.
I choseรย Cheddar Broccoli for my first batch of soup because it’s a family favorite. To make the soup into more of a meal, I served itรย with quick & easy Cheesy Pull Apart Bread (recipe below!).
My family went crazy for Idahoanรยฎ Premium Steakhouseรยฎ Cheddar Broccoli Potato Soup! It really only took 5 minutes to prepare (though I let it simmer a little longer while I made the Cheesy bread), andรย the taste was deliciously creamy and satisfyingรขโฌโ We can’t wait to try the other varieties!
