Cornbread with Smoked Gouda and Sun Dried Tomatoes pairs perfectly with Progresso soups!

Fall is here, the temperatures are dropping and I am looking for easy dinner ideas that everyone will love. Something I can make that will warm us all on those chillier evenings when we are more focused on the conversation than the recipe. While walking through Walmart the other day I saw a huge stack of Progresso Rich & Hearty Chicken & Homestyle Noodle soups about to go on shelves. My visions of a warm, steamy bowl of soup had me going directly to the soup aisle and not passing go! I found what I wanted and decided to stock up. After all, it is the season to stock up on rich delicious soups for those instant meals everyone loves! While throwing cans in my cart I decided that my Cornbread with Smoked Gouda and Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipe would pair perfectly with the soup! So I got my ingredients and headed home.

Cornbread with Smoked Gouda and Sun Dried Tomatoes makes a hearty side dish to Progresso soup

I have to tell you, when I am on on a schedule and trying to get everything done that I need to, I barely have time to even think about food. But if I can toss the dry and wet ingredients of this cornbread in a bowl and then bake it in my cast iron skillet, I have a side dish that enhances and soaks up all of the juices of Progresso Rich & Hearty Chicken & Homestyle Noodle Soup. It can handle it too. With huge noodles that fill the spoon, big chunks of real chicken and bite size slices of carrot to add to the flavor, it really is a meal in a bowl. Plus, with quality ingredients including antibiotic free, all white meat chicken, I can feel great about eating it and even better about serving it to my kids!

Progresso Soups are a perfect pairing to Cornbread with Smoked Gouda and Sun Dried Tomatoes

A while back I discovered this Cornbread with Smoked Gouda and Sun Dried Tomatoes, modified it a little for my family’s tastes and have been making it ever since. It is the perfect compliment to soup as it enhances every flavor Progresso has.  I even crumble it up in the soup and let the broth soak into the little crevices making it even more delicious! It is fairly easy to make, takes less than 10 minutes to put together and comes out of the oven warm and ready to dip!
