I spotted a line of brand new Weight Watchers Smart Ones soups
while at Target. Out of the four options available, I decided to try out the Smart Ones Southwest Style Vegetable Soup for
lunch. I am not much of a soup person (particularly canned soups), but
occasionally I find myself wanting a bowl so I either have to make a soup or
stew or pick up a quick and easy soup that I know I enjoy.
I like the idea of frozen soup because it seems more “homemade”
to me. Canned soups taste almost tinny to me, so I tend to avoid those, but I
have found a few frozen soups that I have enjoyed and turn into my “go to”. This particular soup was delicious and will
undoubtedly be a repurchase for me.
According to the box the soup is “a combination of fire-roasted corn & tomatoes blended with red beans,
corn flour, and cilantro all topped with Monterey
Jack cheese.” Most notable the soup is advertised as vegetarian and a good
source of fiber – thanks to the beans and vegetables. The soup itself was delicious. It was mildly
spicy, the cheese made it creamy and it was just overall packed with flavor. I wouldn’t say this is a complete meal in a
bowl, but it is something that could be enjoyed along with a salad or sandwich
in a guilt free way.
A bowl is 120 calories or 3 points plus values. Quite worth it if you’re in the mood for
something warm to go alongside with your lunch or dinner.
QUESTION:
Have you tried any of the new Smart Ones soups?
