 Healthy, gluten-free, no cholesterol and very filling. Ways to offset bland taste. A staple in our house.Oct 02, 2010
By K. Corn
"reviewer"
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!

Two Different Varieties Of Lower Sodium Lentil From Amy's - Check Both Before OrderingJul 29, 2010
By L. Shirley
"Laurie's Boomer Views"
I loved Amy's Lentil vegetable LOW SALTAmy's Organic Lentil Vegetable Low Salt Soup, 14.5-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12)(as it is currently called) -Product ID B000G176CI soup so much that I ordered a second case. When I recieved it, I found that it was not exactly the same as the soup I'd been enjoying so much. Turned out what I ordered wasAmy's Light in Sodium Organic Lentil Soup, 14.5-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12). The LIGHT was very good, but the Low Salt(this one) was the one I prefered in taste,texture and ingredients. And it wasn't just the small difference in the sodium levels per serving - this one at 340mg, the Light at 290mg - you could always add a tiny bit more or doctor it up if you want with pepper, or Mrs. Dash no salt seasonings - this one just seemed more like a stew and had ingredients the LIGHT did not have. This one has tomatoes and spinach which really adds something extra.And really I found that it needed no doctoring up at all.
I liked the Light in Sodium and would recommend it as well to anyone looking to reduce their sodium intake. All Amy's soups are great and made with all organic ingredients. The Lentil soups are also a good source of protien and dietary fiber. They are also a good source of Vit A,and Iron. O Cholesterol, low fat and low sugar as well.
You can check the nutritional info(click on link on detail page) and also see all the ingredients and decide for yourself which you want to try, but I wanted to let everyone considering know that there are 2 different lower sodium lentil soups. I prefered this one.It was thicker and just had that little something extra.
Also - I found that buying them here by the case saves quite a bit as compared to the individual cans at my local market. You may though, want to try one can of each from your market before deciding on an entire case.
Remember to breathe, eat healthy and enjoy.....Laurie

Wonderful and organicNov 14, 2007

Easy to blend with electric blender if you want it smoother and often add herbs and other goodies such as smoked ham. You can create variations with each can instead of a whole pot of soup the same.

Really liked this soup!!Jun 16, 2008
By Eve
Great tasting low sodium soup. I am always looking for low sodium products, and I really like how good this soup and some of Amy's other low sodium products taste. I will be ordering this and other Amy products often. I have tried the spicy and medium chili, chunky tomato soup, and the lentil soup without vegetables. These are going to be regular pantry items in our home. If you require low sodium products in your diet, these items taste great and are high quality. Enjoy!!
