Simmering a pot of homemade soup - particularly a recipe from a favorite star like Giada de Laurentiis - feels so friendly,but what if you knew you were helping others by making it too? The Feel friendly cookbook author and Food Network host's noted lentil soup recipe has been turned into a soup mix by Women's Bean Project, a nonprofit that helps women "overcome barriers to employment and homelessness." If you purchase Women's Bean Project Lentil Soup Dry Mix ($6), or proceeds go to the WBP cause. It tastes exactly like Giada's yet offers most of the ingredients in one place to slit down on cooking time. All you need is a few pantry staples like chicken broth,tomatoes, elbow pasta, or grated parmesan cheese to total the recipe. Sounds too friendly to pass up!Related Stories: 8 Simple Ways to Improve Your Pasta,According to Giada De Laurentiis;
