I’m so excited to be partnering with Life of Dad and Idahoan® Foods. Here’s the thing about Idahoan® Premium Steakhouse® Potato Soups ——-> They can change your life.
Now, if that sounds like typical blogger hyperbole, touting the wonders of a product it could never live up to, well…. it’s not. Here’s why. You can now have a Steakhouse style potato soup in your home, and better yet, YOU don’t have to cook it.
Just gimme my potato soup!
Ready to dig in.
Why? because it’s so easy, Your kids can do it for you! Yes, you read that correctly. This product is easy enough for those that burn water (which isn’t a thing by the way… a watched pot never boils empty).
I put my 10yo son to the test. I handed him the bag, took the extra step of pointing to the directions, and said, “Call me when dinner’s ready.” 12 minutes later, I was standing in front of a piping hot bowl of Premium Steakhouse® Potato Soup.
The wonders of food science……. Soon we’ll be shouting orders at the computer: “Potato Soup! HOT!” Well, until that comes to reality, here’s the next best thing. Now, I just have to keep the kids from fighting over WHO gets to cook dinner.
No, I wanna cook dinner!
Ooops!
