Hello! It’s Aimée and Bettijo from Paging Supermom, and we are so excited to share with you this fabulous neighbor gift idea. We definitely love all the delicious holiday goodies (especially these wreath cookies things or this orange butter), but with sweet treats a plenty, how super would it be to bring a healthy and delicious dinner to all your friends?
Our festive Merry Minestrone Christmas Soup in a Jar recipe includes all the makings (except water) of a scrumptious soup. Taking care of dinner will probably be the best gift ever for all those holiday-crazed mom’s on your gift list!

Thanks Aimée and Bettijo!! They ARE supermoms!! As you can tell, they have lots of amazing ideas on their blog, Paging Supermom. Here are a couple of other fun projects of theirs:
This Memory Match Garland is such a smart idea! This free printable garland is a cute way to decorate AND a fun game to play with the kiddos!
These Easy Faux Chalkboard Gift Tags are so smart! I love how simple and cute they are!

I love this! Thanks for the inspiration.
I’m curious about the chopped onion as well. Is this onion powder in the picture or is it dried chopped onion? Surely its not fresh right?
Is it supposed to be DRIED chopped onion or can you just put onion in with all of the dry ingredients? I am definitely doing this so I wanted to make sure! 🙂 thanks!
This is a keeper! I can’t wait to make these for our neighbor gifts. My girls will have fun filling the jars!

This sounds great! Only, I think I would switch the beef bouillon for vegetable bouillon if this was a neighbor or teacher gift. You never know if someone is vegetarian/vegan or just doesn’t eat beef.
Great idea. I will be making up a few of these. Thanks for sharing.
Have a creative day.
