Baxters Stay Full Broccoli, Salmon and Watercress Soup

Tried the Broccoli, Salmon and Watercress soup by Baxters Stay Full range.

I was very impressed by this soup and found it very wholesome.

It is different from other soups because it is about 30% soup and the rest of the 70% are the filling ingredients such as Celery, Broccoli, Onions, Leeks, Peas, Edamame Beans, Potatoes, Watercress, Pinto Beans, Salmon, Pearl Barley and Crème Fraiche.

The only disappointment was the Salmon, I was expecting more Salmon and the pieces of salmon were tiny!It was about the size of a 9mm cube and smaller than a pea.

But anyway the taste was really nice.

I was also expecting to find some whole pieces of broccoli too but it was finely chopped.

However there were lots of pulses.

Baxters Stay Full Spiced Butternut Squash and Edamame Bean Soup

Also tried this as well as the Broccoli, Salmon and watercress soup.

I knew this was not going to taste as good as the Broccoli one so I had no expectations for it.

Overall, the soup was OK, again about 30% soup and 70% of (Butternut Squash, Butterbeans, Carrots, Edamame Beans, Haricot Beans, Red Peppers, Sweet Potato, Onions, Celery and Yellow Split Peas).
The smell was quite pleasant with a hint of cumin and the butterbeans were huge.
