Excellent Lentil Soup Review: Amy's Organic Lentil Soup

I was starting to think that maybe lentil soup just wasn't something that I was going to love. While I love the nutrition that comes from lentils, I have never been that crazy about the taste. I have gotten more and more use to it over the months that I have been regularly using lentils and eating lentil dishes. For a long time I ate Bob's Red Mill Organic Red Lentils and have tried Health Valley Organic Lentil Soup and Wolfgang Puck Organic Thick Hearty Lentil and Vegetables Soup. While I enjoyed these organic canned soups, they were not something that I planned on getting often. However, I was still curious to try out different lentil soups, so when I saw Amy's Organic Lentil Soup I decided to get a can.

The can was not cheap, by my experience, at two dollars and thirty-four cents. The canned organic soup was not on sale and contained the same amount as the other organic lentil soups that I have tried. They however were on sale and were one dollar and sixty-seven cents and two dollars. I didn't mind paying a little bit more because I was just that curious. I really enjoy the brand Amy's and have tried their Vegetarian Organic Refried Beans, Organic Bean-and-Cheese Burrito, Organic Breakfast Burrito, Organic Non-Dairy Burrito and most recently their Organic Chunky Tomato Bisque which I absolutely loved. I was confident that they would make a really good lentil soup.

When I made the can of Amy's Organic Soups Lentil Soup I made several quesadillas to go with the bowls that the can would make. I figured that this way I could make the can of organic lentil soup as a simple dinner and there would plenty of food to get full on. Plus I had a feeling that the quesadillas would help make the lentil taste more pleasant. This organic lentil soup was by far the best that I have ever had. Even though it was lentils that I was tasting I didn't mind. The soup had an excellent texture and thickness and plenty of good seasoning. When they made the recipe they really knew what they were doing. I was enjoying the soup even with out the side dish that I had made to go with it. After eating the soup I looked over the nutrition facts and ingredients.

The ingredients in the Amy's Organic Soups Lentil Soup are vegan and are filtered water, organic lentils, organic celery, organic onions, organic carrots, organic potatoes, organic extra virgin olive oil, sea salt and spices. I was thrilled that there were not any unnatural or weird preservatives in this soup. The nutrition facts looked equally good. There was one hundred and fifty calories with forty calories from fat in a cup of this organic lentil soup, a serving size, as well as five hundred and ninety milligrams of sodium, nineteen grams of carbohydrates, nine grams of fiber, three grams of sugars and eight grams of protein. In the minerals and vitamins section of the nutrition facts there was thirty percent listed for vitamin A, half of that for iron, ten percent listed for vitamin C and two percent for calcium for every serving of organic lentil soup.

Overall I was really happy with this lentil soup. It actually aided in convincing me to continue to get and use lentils in my cooking and to give making an organic lentil soup a try some time. Until I am ready to do that though I will keep the Amy's Organic Soups Lentil Soup in mind. I would recommend for anyone to give this organic lentil soup a try. If I end up finding this soup on a really great sale I think that I will be quite inclined to get quite a few to tuck away in my cupboard.
