Why anyone would destroy minestrone with moo products is beyond me, too. I'd better put on my spec's reading fine print/labels. One more question: Do you blend the pasta or rice in any of these soups, too, should they appear in there? Some days, my TMJ is evil and I just spoonfeed myself!!! Also, I'm trying to loosen my ridgid reigns to some degree. The canned/bought stuff is good for me especially due to the sodium. It's terrible, but if I go out for Thai food, I sit there with a salt shaker. Go figure. I like your idea of quick add-ins as well.
I'm going to check out those Fruit-2-Go snacks as well. I miss the roll-ups. Thanks for the info. I like their nice, tampon like size, too. I discovered these really good babyfood fruit treats, too. President Choice organic's blends, i.e. apple/apricot, apple-mango, apple/strawberry, etc. Some days, I'm downright lazy!
I made a great sub-nuclear balsalmic borscht for lunch--using canned beets (you inspired me). I just quick steamed some red chard and spinach on the stove and zapped a zucchini in the microwave, added herbs and a small amount of broth and balsalmic vinegar and blenderized it. You can use as much broth as you like to get it the consistency you like. Carrot, potatoe, or sweet potatoe would have been funky in there too. Ten whole minutes of work.
