Having just eaten this for dinner, I have advice and raves,
First of all, don’t be put off by the price. If you’ve kept track of grocery store receipts lately or the sharp increase in basic foods over the last year, you may see how this product could save you time, gas and MONEY.
At the time of this writing, it cost about $16.88 for four packages of this mix. EACH package easily serves 8-16 people with soup left over.
While the instructions note to add 4 cups of water or a water and broth combo, we quickly discovered we had to double or even triple the liquid added. No problem there, because we had more soup!
If you don’t have fresh veggies or spices around, this will suffice as is and it is thick and satisfying. If you garden, you’ll improve the taste by adding fresh chopped parsley, garlic and whatever veggies you want. A can of tomatoes (or fresh, chopped ones) does no harm. This is a mix you can play with, add ingredients and spices.
IMPORTANT: this is not a salted mix. It is full of split peas, barley, lentils, whole wheat pasta, dehydrated spinach, tomato, onion, etc. If you don’t use salt, consider adding a salt substitute. I also added basil. It was delightful, quick and is now a pantry staple.

|Superb soup that you can change umpteen times just by adding good things you like!,
I must admit that I didn’t read enough to know what this soup would be like. What I mean is that I didn’t really go through the product description as closely as I should have. I expected this to have a lot of dehydrated veggies in it, but alas–no such luck! That, however, is my deal, not the manufacturers.
This soup is mostly lentils, peas, and veggie pasta. Not a terrible combo, really. In fact, it’s pretty delicious. When I saw the first bag I pulled out of the box, I thought, “oh, no. I’m going to have to WORK to make this soup taste good.” I was wrong. Last night, I opened the first bag up and made a delicous soup with just the ingredients in the bag, some chopped garlic, some leftover sauteed chicken, and a chopped tomato. Talk about yummy! It was hearty, “clean” tasting soup. By that I mean that the flavors didn’t glom up and become one huge mess. I could taste the lentils, the barley, the peas. And the chicken, which I used very little of, was enough to flavor the broth a bit. It was really the one tomato and the garlic that made everything come together, so my advice to you is to go crazy with what you add. My next batch will be made with onion/veggie stock and zucchini, carrots, and a bit of chopped spinach. I can’t wait!

|A Family Favorite!,
I’m always on the lookout for meals that are palatable to my toddler and me and my husband. This product passed the test. My version involves beef broth, a can of diced tomatoes, and whatever veggies are in my crisper that particular day. Plus, one cup of this soup mix feeds our whole family with leftovers so one package goes a long way.
