But truth is, sometimes they might taste a bit bland so you can punch up the flavor in a snap with these three pantry staples:

Lower Sodium Soy Sauce – A few dashes of soy sauce add that terrific umami, “savory” flavor. Add 1/2 teaspoon per 1 cup of soup.
Try with:

  • Mushroom Barley
  • Beef Vegetable
  • Lentil

Low Sodium 100% Vegetable Juice – Veggie juices like V-8 added an extra tomato-y, fresh flavor. Add 1 tablespoon per 1 cup soup.
Try with:

  • Minestrone
  • Three Bean Soup
  • Lentil
  • Tomato
  • Manhatten Clam Chowder

Lemon or Lime Juice – Tart citrus juice brightens and wakes up the flavors of many canned soups.Add 1/2 teaspoon per 1 cup of soup.
Try with:

  • Chicken Noodle (add lemon)
  • Chicken Rice (add lemon)
  • Black Bean (add lime)
  • Tortilla (add lime)

Such a great idea to jazz up a canned soup, which is totally convenient but sometimes just missing a little bit of oomph. I especially like the little bit of lime...great idea!
