Salty, but good taste

Soup mix like this that come dried in packets and only need water added usually have similar issues: not being very healthy, and not being very tasty. I was surprised to find that this leek soup mix actually has a really good taste, especially if you make it with half water half milk. It’s not too watery, but has a very strong leek flavour that I really enjoyed.

On the downside, this soup mix has a TON of sodium, with just a quarter of the mix having 30% of your daily sodium. Oddly it doesn’t taste overly salty, but from a health perspective it’s best not too eat too often if you’re worried about your sodium levels.

Making the soup itself takes less than 10 minutes from start to finish, and it makes either one very large serving or enough soup for three or four people to comfortably split it between them. Goes great with a piece of bread!
