Find Comfort in Creamy, Hearty Family Meals
MISSION, Kan., Oct. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (Family Features) Simmering soups and comforting rice bowls offer easy, flavorful ways to warm up after a cold day – especially during busy weeknights when time is at a premium. Savor those precious seconds spent around the table rather than watching time escape in the kitchen with comfort food classics that don’t waste a moment.
With solutions like Success Boil-in-Bag Pearl Couscous, a Mediterranean-style pasta that cooks in under 7 minutes, you can turn tried-and-true meals into instant favorites. Made with high-quality semolina wheat, it provides a nutty flavor that absorbs the taste of soups and salads while retaining its density and chewy texture.
That firm consistency and flavor absorption makes pearl couscous a perfect base for a slow-simmered weeknight superhero like Creamy Chicken Pearl Couscous Soup. A complete meal in one bowl, it delivers veggies, chicken and bouncy pearl couscous in every warming bite.
Or for an even heartier meal, a simple garlic-spiked marinade turns beef sirloin into a saucy, flavorful family solution. It’s a straightforward dish, making it ideal for those hectic evenings after school and work. To save some extra time, let the beef marinate overnight so it’s ready to cook when you get home from the office.
It’s served over a bowl of aromatic, buttery Success Jasmine Rice, a long-grain rice ready in 10 minutes. It adds subtle yet unique flavor to an assortment of dishes as a certified gluten-free, Non-GMO Project Verified recipe base with no preservatives or additives. Plus, with no measure and no mess, the BPA-free Boil-in-Bag makes cooking easy.
