Advantages: Tasty
Disadvantages: Hubby was not keen on it
You can buy this 415g can of Baxter's minestrone soup for 76p from Tesco or Asda but it will cost 83p in Sainsbury's today. I had a can of this yesterday for my lunch; actually I shared a can with my husband. There is just enough for 2 if you eat some bread with it. In ½ can there are 67kcalories. The ingredients
Water, Carrots, Whole meal Pasta from Wheat (10% Cooked), Potatoes, Onions, Concentrated Tomato Paste (3%), Tomatoes (2%), Green Beans, Green Peppers (1.5%), Modified Cornflour, Red Peppers (1%), Celery, Salt, Honey, Yeast Extract, Garlic Puree, Dried Basil, Oregano, Black Pepper, Vegetables (27%). Contains Celery, Gluten, and Wheat & Whole meal.
To open this can is easy it has a ring pull.
I heated mine in a microwave I had poured it into 2 bowls and microwaved each one for 2 mins20seconds. I could have used a saucepan over the hob but it's easier and saves washing up done in the microwave. The instructions for cooking are on the can.
We sat down to eat this soup hubby not ecstatic as he did not fancy soup with big pieces of vegetables in it. (He has a sore throat) This soup tastes pleasant it is a tomato flavored vegetable soup and you can taster the Mediterranean herbs: - garlic basil, oregano. There is some pasta in this soup too makes it a bit more substantial. I liked this soup goes well with parmesan cheese sprinkled on top or eaten with cheese on toast if you are very hungry, goes well with a chunk of crusty bread too.
Yes it was a pleasant satisfying soup for lunch, not too many calories before Christmas...
Summary: A sopup with garlic and oregano
