We had grilled cheese and veggie soup for dinner. I don't usually like canned soup but we all will eat the vegetable soup on occasion for a quick meal. I have learned that instead of opening usually 3 cans of soup for the 4 of us, I can open 1 can of soup and add a can of vegetables to stretch the soup. Tonight I was short so I added 2 cans of veggies to 1 can of soup. I wasn't sure that was going to be enough but it was! There is even a little leftover! Canned vegetables are much cheaper than a can of soup which is mostly broth anyway!
Have you figured out other ways to stretch soup or other food items? Please share!
