What Types of Recipes and Ingredients Are Featured on cookwithcampbells.ca?
Updated
cookwithcampbells.ca is a recipe site built around Campbell's products—primarily condensed soups, broths, and related items. Recipes are organized for quick, everyday cooking, with each listing showing prep time, cook time, and serving count so you can judge whether it fits your schedule before you start. If you already have a can of Campbell's soup or broth on hand and want a fast dinner idea, this site is aimed at you. If you need recipes that avoid packaged or processed ingredients entirely, it won't be a good match.
What kinds of recipes you'll find
The site's tagline, "Simple Start, Endless Recipes," reflects its focus: short ingredient lists anchored by a Campbell's product, with most recipes falling into weeknight-friendly categories.
- Slow cooker recipes — set-and-forget meals
- Chicken recipes
- Beef recipes
- Low sodium options — for people watching their salt intake
- Macaroni & cheese recipes — a dedicated collection
- Side dishes and appetizers — e.g., Bacon-Asparagus Bundles with Dijon Cream Sauce, Maple-Balsamic Rainbow Carrots with Feta
- Stuffing and holiday-style dishes — e.g., Herbed Turkey & Brioche Stuffing Cups
Each recipe page includes a user rating (many currently show 0 out of 5, meaning few ratings so far), prep time, cook time, and number of servings.
Example recipes and what they tell you
| Recipe | Prep | Cook | Serves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gourmet Garlic Herb Mac & Cheese | 5 min | 15 min | 4 |
| Bacon-Asparagus Bundles with Dijon Cream Sauce | 7 min | 20 min | 12 |
| Herbed Turkey & Brioche Stuffing Cups | 15 min | 36 min | 12 |
| Maple-Balsamic Rainbow Carrots with Feta | 10 min | 20 min | 8 |
| Spicy Chicken Burrito Bowl | 5 min | 15 min | 4 |
The pattern is consistent: total time under about 40 minutes for most dishes, and serving counts that scale from a single household (4) up to party portions (12). The Spicy Chicken Burrito Bowl, for instance, uses Campbell's® Ready to Use Spicy Chicken Broth (900 mL) as its base—a good example of how a single product carries the flavor while you add protein and vegetables.
Video recipes
The site also hosts video walkthroughs for some recipes, including Easy Thai Shrimp Curry, Brown Rice and Chicken Lettuce Cups, Easy Basil Chicken Pasta, and Chicken and Shrimp with Sriracha Sauce. These are useful if you want to see the technique before cooking—particularly for dishes where timing or assembly matters.
How to decide if it fits your needs
It's a good fit if:
- You keep Campbell's condensed soup or broth in your pantry and want to use it up
- You want recipes with 5–15 minutes of prep
- You need low sodium options
- You're cooking for 4 or scaling up to 8–12 for a gathering
It may not fit if:
- You avoid packaged soups or broths for dietary or preference reasons
- You need recipes with no branded product requirement
- You're looking for detailed nutritional breakdowns—the listings shown emphasize time and servings rather than full nutrition panels
To browse, start from the recipe collections (such as Macaroni & Cheese) or the "Latest Recipes" section, then filter by the type of dish or the Campbell's product you already have.
