 Great Home Made Flavor...Feb 07, 2010
By Ambergris
"John Thomas"
I buy a lot of Bear Creek soup mixes. Although I work from home and enjoy cooking, especially soups and stews, I often relent to a mix. Not necessarily for it is easier and faster, but sometimes I simply enjoy a taste other than by my own hand. Bear Creek (BC) mixes are in my opinion the best of all the mixes I have tried. (My favorite is the Bear Creek veggie beef). The stock in all the BC mixes are the very richest that I have ever used. They certainly don't skimp on the spices, nor the veggies and other ingredients included. The minestrone is no exception. It is a fine rich and flavorful soup that one will look forward to both making, and enjoying on a cold winter day. Especially with a good hunk of crusty bread. (I prefer making mine in a crock pot. A slower simmer seems to give it added flavor). As with all the BC mixes, they all accept well your own personal additions to what is already included in the pouch. I have added extra tomatoes, (stewed is best) extra onions, a little more garlic, (I'm a graduate of the never too much garlic school), and extra beef stock as another reviewer here suggested. Sometimes all at once, and other times just an extra all by itself. The pre mixed stock is so rich and delicious that its almost impossible to ruin it. Bear Creek mixes are available in most larger supermarkets, as well as of course here on Amazon as well. Although I have never ordered this soup mix specifically from Amazon, I have ordered many others, as well a variety of other food stuffs, and have never had anything taste "cardboard" or otherwise. My only recommendation to you if ordering this soup mix or any other on Amazon is to make it worth your while as to the shipping and order several at once. Try all the Bear Creek mixes, especially the veggie beef. I think you and your family will find them pleasingly lip smacking...

This soup is surprisingly excellent.Apr 05, 2011

I bought a pack of this in the local grocery store for kicks. When I made it, I was expecting it to be a very thin, watery soup like Lipton cup of soup or something, so I only used 7 cups of water, when it calls for 8. This soup was surpisingly hearty and delicious. Next time I make it, I will follow the instructions, and it will still be a hearty, delicious soup. With 7 cups of water, it was really good, but almost too spicey. One of these packs, is easily enough to feed four average sized men without skimping. I had two big bowls, and then put the rest in the fridge, which is easily two more bowls of hearty soup(not just broth).
I was very surprised. This stuff is WAY better than ANY canned soup I have ever had in my entire life. Whether it be WolfGang puck, progressive, cambell's thick and chunky, etc.
The bag I got, was good until 2013, but I know dried goods last for a LOOONG time, because once you get the moisture content down below 10%, bacteria, and viruses can't grow.
This brings me to another note. This would be a very good thing to have around, just for emergency supplies. It is light, and is easy to pack. You just add water, and boil for 15 minutes. Just buy this instead of canned soup, and you won't regret it, and at the same time, you will be providing emergency supplies.
You will always have plenty of good soup to eat if you want a bowl. Plus, it uses a lot less packaging, and materials than canned soup.
I recommend this on taste, amount to feed 4 people comfortably, convenience, and smarts.

Luv this stuff!Feb 09, 2008
By NotJustAnyOl'blonde
Wow....a little disappointed in the previous review. Not sure what would make the soup taste cardboard-ish just because it was ordered from Amazon. I, too, buy mine in local supermarket. It's fabulous and has become a weekly (sometimes bi-weekly) dinner staple at my house. I'm going to order it from here and see what happens. If it turns out to be cardboard-ish tasting I'll downgrade my review.
Love It!Sep 12, 2009

Love this ministrone soup mix;it is great all by itself. We add browned ground beef or turkey to it, add extra water and some beef boullion, and some extra minced onions, sometimes some extra veggies/mushrooms, and this all makes it better than great.

 great soup, not from here though.May 08, 2007
By MK
I LOVE this soup when it's bought in a grocery store. For whatever reason, the soup we bought from Amazon tasted cardboard-ish and I've thrown some out after cooking it. The same soup from or local store is a staple of our weeknight dinners. Very good stuff.
