In general, Mike and I love soups. Sometimes that’s all we order at certain restaurants and we like eating it at home, too.
I’ve tried many different new-to-us soup recipes over the years, usually in the crockpot, but most aren’t truly share-able, in my opinion. I only want to post on here the ones we really liked and want to remember!
So here is one. Lasagna in soup form! I didn’t do much adjusting from so you can read about it there or for the printable recipe. Hope you enjoy it, too!

Original Post:
It’s an exciting morning!! A few months ago, I received an invitation to ’s virtual baby shower. is one of the bloggers I’ve read the longest – we share a lot of beliefs and opinions, not to mention she has a terrific talent with words. Her articulation and descriptive storytelling is becoming a gift less and less common in this world with texts and tweets. It’s refreshing and encouraging. I’ve also begun enjoying reading some of ’s posts, the sweet girl who has put in the effort of coordinating this shower!
Because several of us wanted to shower Jenna with our love and appreciation of her from afar, a virtual gathering was the perfect solution. I haven’t been able to resist the mini/baby theme – a few days ago, I posted these mini cinnamon rolls and today I’m officially sharing these Baby BLTs! Aren’t they cute?
I had originally tasted them when my mom made them for appetizers before a big holiday dinner (maybe Christmas last year?). They’re pretty easy to make and, if you don’t have a food police guard, get consumed in a flash. I cooked the bacon in the oven (via instructions) to be able to do more at a time and have less mess.
There are several variations of Baby BLTs out there in the world wide web, but is the one I went with. One thing it didn’t mention that I discovered is that a grapefruit knife is an absolute must in the process of hollowing out the cherry tomatoes – made the job super easy.
To print my version, .
Jenna, I hope that your pregnancy continues to go smoothly and I pray the birth is beautiful. May God give you and hubby the strength and wisdom to raise up precious Alice into the God-fearing models that you already portray. Happy Shower Day!
