A spoonful of our soup philosophy
"I am so excited about the new range of Yeo Valley Organic soups, as someone who loves soup but doesn’t always have time to make it myself these are the perfect solution. Made with natural ingredients and plenty of organic vegetables, they offer a quick, wholesome and satisfying lunch." Alice Mayor, Yeo Valley Organic's in-house nutritionist.
What are the new Yeo Valley Organic soup flavours?
The new soup flavours are based on classic recipes but with a Yeo twist, and there are four new flavours to try.
· Sweet Potato, Carrot & Lentil
Is there protein in soup?
Absolutely, soup can be a source of protein, particularly soups containing ingredients like beans, lentils and dairy. Each of the Yeo Valley Organic soups has been developed to provide a source of protein. For example, the lentils in the Tomato, Spinach & Lentil soup and the peas in the Broccoli, Pea & Spinach soup both contribute to the protein content, helping to make these soups more satisfying and balanced.
Is soup a complete lunch?
Soup can be a complete lunch, the great thing about the Yeo Valley Organic soups is that they are packed with vegetables and provide a source of protein. All the soups contain at least 2 or more of your 5 a day. Each pot is one serving and they can be eaten on their own or enjoyed with a slice of buttered bread or your favourite toppings.
Is there fibre in soup?
Soup can be an easy and delicious way to increase your fibre intake, particularly when it’s made with plenty of vegetables and pulses. All the Yeo Valley Organic soups are a source of fibre and three of the recipes are high in fibre. The fibre comes naturally from wholesome ingredients such as vegetables and lentils, helping you add more goodness to your day.
Why is fibre important?
Fibre is important for many reasons, it is important for gut health and feeding your gut microbiome, but research also shows diets high in fibre are linked to good heart and metabolic health. Another great thing about fibre is it slows the release of energy from food, supporting steadier energy levels and helping you feel fuller for longer.
How much fibre should we eat?
In the UK we are recommended to eat 30g of fibre a day, and many of us fall short of this. A good way to eat more fibre is to include lots of whole foods in your diet such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, wholegrains (like brown bread and brown rice) as well as things like beans and pulses (like lentils).
Is fresh-chilled soup better than canned soup?
Fresh chilled soups are likely to be less processed as they don’t require so many additives like preservatives, they are also closer to how you would make soup at home. Canned soups however can still be very nutritious and have long shelf life which can be convenient.
Why is soup such a great lunch
Soup is one of the ultimate lunchtime heroes. Its warming, satisfying and convenient, making it ideal for busy days when you need something nourishing without spending lots of time preparing food. If choosing the right soup with a source of protein and fibre, like these Yeo Valley Organic soups it can make a quick lunch that is balanced and that will keep you fuelled for the afternoon.
What are the best ways to enjoy soup?
These soups are great just out the pot, but who doesn’t love soup with buttered bread or some crunchy croutons. Or if you are wanting to look for ways to boost your fibre even more why not try adding some crunchy chickpeas or seeds to your soup.
