As the weather cools and consumers warm up to soup season, Minneapolis-based Progresso is partnering with Carla Hall – trained chef, television personality, author and restaurateur – to inspire new soup pairings for fall days.
Hall is curating pairings for the brand’s fall favorite soups.
“With such a great range of soups available, there really is a flavor for everyone with Progresso – and I had so much fun whipping up pairings for some of my favorite varieties,” Hall said. “I experimented with a lot of flavors and textures to complement the delicious veggies and savory herbs, so all of my pairings with Progresso soup effortlessly take lunch time from ordinary to extraordinary.”
Hall’s list includes food pairings that match the flavors in favorite Progresso soups:
- Traditional Chicken Noodle paired with herbed biscuits;
- Vegetable Classics Minestrone paired with toasted breadcrumbs on top;
- Rich and Hearty Clam Chowder paired with toasted seasoned oyster crackers;
- Spice it Up Spicy Jambalaya paired with hot water cornbread; and
- Vegetable Classics Tomato Basil paired with mozzarella grilled cheese.
“At Progresso, our focus is on delivering quality ingredients and great flavors to bring consumers our best soups. Since Carla is known for her passion and culinary creativity, we couldn’t have picked a better partner to inspire fresh, savory uses for our fan-favorite products,” said Maria Carolina Comings, business unit director, simple meals at General Mills. “Carla whipped up some seriously tasty ideas that spice up our lunches and hit every flavor profile.”
