Campbell's Soup was created in 1895 by Joseph Campbell. The first flavor was Beefsteak Tomato and it was ready-to-eat, not the condensed soups we know today. (Condensed soup was introduced two years later in 1897.)

Thanks to Mr. Campbell, I present you with three soup hacks sure to have you singing the praises of Mr. Campbell too. Psst...one is a dessert!

Crockpot Meatball and Gray

Easy dump recipe using Campbells Cream of Mushroom soup with Roasted Garlic. A creamy, delicious meal.

Tomato Soup Cupcakes

I was shocked too! You can't taste the tomato; the soup just adds to the moistness of the cake and you're sneaking in some veggies. Topped with cream cheese icing...OMG!

Crockpot Creamy Chicken Nachos

Made with Cream of Chicken soup, this easy dump-into-a-crockpot takes only 5 minutes to prepare and your family is sure to gobble them up.

    This is called "Mystery Cake" in the Joy of Cooking cookbook (at least in the original version, not sure about later versions, but probably those also.)
