Soup is an ancient food whose origins predate recorded history. It is unknown exactly how soup become a food, but one can assume it started very simply as a meager combination of water, animal bones and scraps of meat, fish or chicken, and vegetables. Over time, soup became more refined with the addition of spices, beans and grains. Soup, once thought of as a food of the poor, has reached an elevated status of sophistication and is recognized today not only for its tastes, but also for its healthful attributes. Vigo Collard Green Soup, Caldo Gallego, is based on a traditional Spanish recipe from the Galicia region of Spain. Galicia is a mountainous area in Northern Spain where a big bowl of soup, some crusty bread, and a glass of wine make a typical meal for the people of this rugged area. Our version is the perfect combination of white beans, onion, green peppers, and collard greens, which contribute to this unique soup's intense flavor and satisfying heartiness. | | | Features: | |

 would have given it four stars....Oct 28, 2010

Best you know you are buying a Northerners idea of collard soup. It is really white bean soup but tasty! It is worth buying due to the short prep time. Tastes like you simmerered the beans all day. By the time you cook the corn bread the soup is also ready to eat!
High starch but good fiber source as well. Serves two very generously and definitely three, maybe four, with smaller appetites or extra sides.
Did I mention tasty? Just do not expect collard soup with lots of collards.

This soup mix makes a tasty addition to any multiple course meal. It also makes a great pick me up when you have a head cold. The mix of seasonings and ingredients gives this soup a rich flavor that is better than many watered down home recipes.

If you lack dark green vegetables this will substitute. You must add flavor and a starchy dish to accompany it.
