Light in Sodium Lentil Vegetable Soup

This soup is not only high in Vitamin A and C but is great to have on hand for a quick lunch or dinner, either alone with supplemented with bread or crackers and a salad. It is also completely gluten-free.Imagine this: you're hungry, don't have anything on hand, don't want to out and buy groceries. With a 12 pack of this on hand (currently averaging $2.50 a can but a deal because it is so filling), you simply need to open the can, heat it and add whatever you want to offset the low sodium - unless you are on a low-sodium diet. I'm NOT on a low-sodium diet and don't mind the lack of salt. However, if you want a stronger or saltier taste, you can add a bit of regular or garlic salt or salt substitute. I also prefer to add a dollop of sour cream or low-fat yogurt and that makes a HUGE difference. With some crackers, I'm set for lunch or even dinner.Look below for the nutritional content and other benefits but don't overlook those impressive amounts of Vitamin A and C. Sure, you'll need more for your daily requirements but this doesn't have that horrible preservative taste of other canned soups and my whole family loves it. I sometimes add a bit of chicken or vegetable broth and add some lightly sauteed onions or celery. But none of that is necessary. Good to have on hand for power outages, blizzards or times when you need food and the stove won't work. It can be eaten cold in a pinch.Other pros:1. No trans fats, MSG or preservatives. NO GMOS, no bio-engineered ingredients.2. Tastes a bit bland by itself (low sodium) but add some pepper, a bit of salt and a dollop of sour cream and yogurt and it is elevated to a far tastier soup.3. Great to have on hand for emergencies or when you're rushed for time and need a quick meal. Perhaps hearty eaters would want more but I find a can to be totally satisfying and hearty enough to keep me full till dinner or eve as a dinner entree.4. My whole family likes it but they do prefer salt. So take a chance on this and see if your family likes it. If they do, having this on hand could be a major time saver and you'll know they aren't getting trans fats.5. Relatively high vitamin content compared to other commercial soups.Nutritional content (daily values): Vitamin A- 45 percent, Vitamin C - 20 percent, Calcium - 6%, Iron - 15%, Fat - only 4 grams (no trans fat and only .5% of saturated fat), no cholesterol, 340 mg sodium, 24 grams of carbs, dietary fiber 32%, protein - 7 grams, sugars - 5 grams.We find that if we have this soup before a larger meal we don't feel inclined to eat as much. If you are trying to lose weight, this is a plus. Each can is around 360 calories unless you want to stretch this to 2 servings. I don't prefer to do that but if you have toddlers or very young children, half a can should be plenty. I'm sold on this wonderful soup!

This Amy's soup is wonderful / I have a can of this most every evening with my dinner / very healthy, low-sodium, and plenty of fiber. Their low-sodium Tomato Bisque is also delicious. There is one problem, however. When I order a dozen cans from Amazon Prime, sometimes, some of the cans are dented, but Amazon always stands behind any problems and always makes it right.

This Amy’s soup is perfect. Am Amy’s customer for possibly 20 years.

Delicious, healthy ingredients which, despite 41 carbs per can, do not spike blood sugar. Quick lunch or side dish with low-carb dinner.Occasionally add 1/4 cup cooked spiral pasta to make more filling.Yes, sometimes dented cans.

I can’t get enough of Amy’s low sodium soups. They’re all good, but I’ve got a very sensitive pallet to things that are salty or sweet so the low salt incarnation of lentil vegetable soup is perfect. It’s vegan, which is what you would expect with this brand. All of the taste, much less salt. I would imagine if someone needs to cut down their salt intake this lentil vegetable soup would be a perfect choice. I’ve been buying this for longer than 25 years at this point and I’m a customer for life. A little bit more expensive, but absolutely a value for the money.

The soup is the best canned soup on the market. It is flavorful without the overly salty taste that most canned soups have. And it is delicious when I add chicken and brown rice to it, to give it more texture and make it a complete filling and nutritional dinner.My disappointment came when I opened the package to find that two of the cans were dented. Looking at comments from other reviews, I am now aware that this is not an uncommon happenng. The purchace would've been a great value for the money if I was able to use the two dented cans, but the value is no longer there. I'm still giving the SOUP 5 stars.

I’m not a huge fan of canned soup I’ll eat whatever in a pinch but most of the time it’s nothing to write home about. This soup hits every time. I have borderline high blood pressure so I get the lower sodium version and add accent and black pepper once cooked. People give accent a hard time but it has 60% less sodium so it works out well for me personally. Even without it it’s a pretty yummy soup but the accent throws it over the top. I’m not vegan so if I happen to have some ham or bacon on hand I’ll toss some in.Highly recommend having a yeast roll or three 🤭 with this.

Received my first order with damaged cans from which liquid had poured from the lid tops badly enough to soak the labels and the plastic wrap the box was sealed in. With a prompt complaint I received a second replacement delivery the following day at no extra charge. Thankful for the immediate processing of my transaction.However, my replacement delivery has 4 out of 12 dented (but not leaking) cans of soup. I will not pretend to know just when or where after passing manufacturer inspection that the damaging occurred. I offer review for consideration ONLY for future orders placed. Amy’s is expensive and offers a great quality soup.
