Tinned Soup

[ChippySauce]

Not feeling great and trying to fend off a cold I feel is brewing.
Just looked through the cupboards and found a can of Heinz minestrone so that will be lunch.
There's also one can of M&S Cream of Chicken, but I fancy something tomato based.
I think they're from an ocado order DH must've done 😄

Do you like tinned soup?
Any favourites?

Baxter's Cream of Tomato. I used to love the Lobster Bisque one but it costs so much these days.
Crosse and Blackwell Cream of Tomato is also very nice. Just had it for my lunch.

I love Heinz cream of tomato, just had it for lunch!

Only ones I like are Sainsbury's own spicy lentil and a Four bean one. Don't like Heinz at all. Plus they are about £2 a tin now!

You can if you search for a recipe, it's what I did & I ended up asking a couple of pals for their recipes and tweaked them til I got the right balance for us. I don't have the amounts of each ingredient as I've been making it so long now that I do it by eye depending on what size pan I'm using but it 's very simple, smoked bacon , onions, carrots, red lentils, chicken or veg stock, salt and black pepper. Sometimes I'll add leeks and curly kale if I have any. I chop and fry the bacon, then add chopped veg, stock , lentils and seasoning, bring to boil, turn down to simmer until veggies are soft around 20-25 mins . Sometimes we eat it as soon as it's ready & the veg is still chunky, it's so delicious. But I mostly make a huge batch, let it cool, blend and freeze in portions. My DH says this is better than canned which is a huge compliment from him as he's usually a Heinz purist

I rarely have tinned soup, but I often fancy tinned cream of tomato soup when I'm ill - even if I've had a bad sickness bug - if I can keep a bread stick for a hour or so, the soup will come out. Funnily enough I bought a can yesterday.

Hope you feel better soon.

I do like heinz lentil I make my own lentil but it doesn't quite hit the spot.

All the M&S ones are great and such good value ! I prefer the tomato and cream of chicken to Heinz and for 60p fantastic. Favourite at the moment is their chicken and chunky veg - that’s £1.10 but is like having a bowl of chicken stew it’s so substantial

Asda tinned vegetable soup. I love it!

Baxters French Onion or Heinz cream of tomato are my go to, and it has to be Heinz tomato.

I really love Asda's own oxtail soup, it's the only brand I like. I'm trying to reduce my UPF intake this year and made my first soup ever this year (I am not a confident cook). Carrot and sweet potato and it was bloody delicious

Baxter's Lobster Bisque - needs a splash of double cream and some fresh ground black pepper though. It's very good for a tinned soup.

Cross and Blackwell Winter Veg is really nice, and comparatively good value. Really chunky.

I like the Asda Mexican style chicken and bean soup from their health menu range. Not a tin but love the packet Knorr chicken noodle when I'm poorly.

I tried the lobster bisque and had to throw it out.
I just couldn't stomach it.
Never had it fresh either mind. I was really expecting something fantastic and was bitterly disappointed.

Love a fresh lobster though

I find Heinz tomato heavy and overdone.

Morrisons cheapo tomato soup is a lot cheaper and a lot better.

Heinz mushroom soup for me!

My mum used to give us Heinz tomato soup with chips in sometimes. Proper chips from her chip pan, with salt and vinegar on. I still have it every now and then when I need a comforting childhood food memory. With chippy chips though, as I don't have a chip pan.

Heinz Tomato soup or Cream of chicken with buttered toast dipped in !

When we were kids we had heinz tomato soup with a big blob of buttery mash in the middle of the bowl for tea & we loved it. I find the soup way too sweet now

Everyone's going to say 'yuck' but Campbells Condensed Mushroom eaten cold out of the tin ❤

Heinz chicken & mushroom is my favourite followed by Heinz tomato then lentil

I've eaten litte else for the past fortnight thanks to flu

Broccoli and stilton
Butternut squash
Spicy parsnip
Tomato

Love them all

Thanks @Sunnyside4
I think it's going to be worse before it's better as my throat has progressively got more irritated as the day has gone on unfortunately 🤒
Guess I'd better stock up!

As a child with many bouts of tonsillitis. I lived on Heinz chicken soup and lucozade.----

I wonder if it was a recipe in woman's weekly or similar? Potato based food and tomato soup put together.
