Progresso High Fiber Soup – Review and Giveaway
October 27, 2009 by ahappyhippymom
Filed under giveaways, reviews
Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? I know I’m not getting as much as I should be. I need to be eating more plant foods and increase my daily fiber intake.
Why is high fiber diet so important? A diet high in fiber has many health benefits, which include lowering blood cholesterol, controlling blood sugar levels, helps aid in weight loss, prevents constipation and lowers your risk of digestive conditions.
An easier and tastier way of getting more fiber is by eating Progresso’s new High Fiber soups. The High Fiber line offers four delicious varieties that have 28% of the recommended Daily Value of fiber (7 grams) per serving and have no added MSG, or artificial flavors. The new varieties include
Creamy Tomato Basil*
Hearty Vegetable Noodle*
Homestyle Minestrone*
Chicken Tuscany*
MyBlogSpark sent me a Progresso Chicken Tuscany soup sample to try . The soup contained chunks of chicken and bits of carrots, celery, zucchini, onions, beans, and spinach. The aroma was incredible and each bite tasted delicious. It’s hard to believe the soup came out of a can and it had a nice homemade appeal to it. I’m looking forward to trying the other Progresso High Fiber soups!
Along with the soup I was also sent two really nice blue Progresso branded soup mugs and branded spoons which made eating the soup even more fun!
Progresso History
“Over 100 years ago, the business now known as Progresso Foods started. A young Sicilian, Vincent Taormina, first imported foods from Italy to meet the need for high-quality ingredients familiar to Italian-Americans. As more family members became involved and importing grew both in volume and locations, the business merged in 1927 to become the Progresso Italian Food Corporation and the Progresso label was born. It is now part of General Mills and continues to adhere to the original premise of providing high quality food ingredients at a reasonable price for the discerning home cook.”

Los Lobos Goes Disney

Filed under reviews
Los Lobos, the three time grammy winning East Los Angeles band, is back with their new first album after three years! The Los Lobos Goes Disney CD features 13 loved Disney favorites including Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, Cruella De Vil, and Heigh Ho. You may think you have heard these songs before, but you haven’t heard them quite like this! The band renews the timeless classics by adding their brilliant Spanish-rock style charm to each song. The album is a must for Disney fans and can be enjoyed by all ages.

1. Heigh-Ho [From Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs]
2. I Wan’na Be Like You [From The Jungle Book]
3. Not in Nottingham [From Robin Hood]
4. Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room [From The Enchanted Tiki Room], The
5. Grim Grinning Ghosts [From Haunted Mansion]

12. Oo-De-Lally [From Robin Hood]
13. When You Wish Upon a Star/It’s a Small World [From Pinocchio/It's a Small World]
LOVED IT AND TODDLER APPROVED
I was sent the new album to review and loved it! I like how the band made each song seem like I was hearing it for the first time. Los Lobos definitely added a unique fun twist and made each tune their own! I keep the cd in my car and pop it in to calm the toddler boredom fits while going on shopping trips. Aiden tries to sing along and I have to laugh because he is only 23 months! His words don’t always come out correct and he is adding his own rendition of the songs. Too funny!
PREVIEW
If you would like to preview the Los Lobos Goes Disney
CD yourself Amazon.com has a sample of each song you can listen to.

The CD is expected to hit the shelves October 27, but you can purchase the MP3 Los Lobos Goes Disney [Amazon.com Exclusive]
