    1. Hey John, we currently offer nutrition information for all our Diet and Paleo recipes! If you have more questions we’d love to chat with you in the bottom right-hand corner!

  1. Cream of mushroom soup and onion soup mix are store bought processed mixes….I think this is much cleaner version and delicious to boot XXXX Is there a way to suggest recipes to be added?

    1. If you want to make it for dinner, use the “Make It Now” instructions. If you would like to freeze it for later you should use the “Freeze for Later” instructions.
