Teresa Fiocchi, from Augusta, Mich., was crowned the grand prize winner of Family Fare's Our Family is Souper contest Saturday morning.
Fiocchi gets to take home $2,500 in free groceries for her Fiocchi Family Pasta E Fagioli soup. Her soup was chosen by a panel of judges, which included our very own Meteorologist Laura Hartman, at a final tasting event half at the Metro Family Fare Supermarket in Wyoming.
The Food Bank of South Central Michigan, who was paired with Fiocchi during the Our Family is Souper contest, will also receive $2,500 in Our Family products.
If you're interested in Fiocchi's winning recipe, it will be featured on SpartanNash's website, along with Our Family Foods, Family Fare Supermarkets, D&W Fresh Market, Forest Hills Foods, ValuLand and VG's websites too. The recipe and ingredients will also be available through Fast Lane.
Each recipe is also available on the Our Family blog to print and make at home.
