Amy's Organic Soups Reviews & Info (Dairy-Free & Vegan Varieties) (2024)

To this day, I think of Amy’s Kitchen as the darling of the natural food industry. As conglomerates gobbled up everything in site, Amy’s remained a family-owned business, and became the nation’s leader in natural frozen foods. But their shelf-stable items should not be forgotten. Amy’s Dairy-Free Organic Soups are a personal favorite. Some of their soups do contain milk, but over 30 of them are vegan! This includes some of their newer creamy bisques. For your pantry stocking efforts, I have all of them detailed below.

Our Amy’s Organic Soup Reviews

Vegan Chunky Tomato Bisque (pictured below)

This was my most recently sampling, and I was impressed. Amy’s has a tomato bisque with milk, but they’ve since released this vegan variety with a touch of coconut cream for richness. The flavor is bold, yet pure and perfectly salted. I found it to be just a touch too sweet (they really could tone down the organic sugar added), but it tempers well with add-ins or bread for dipping.

Fire Roasted Southwestern Vegetable

This soup has a heat that sneaks up on you … the kind that makes you keep eating, quickly, to keep it from catching up with your taste buds.I loved the flavor, though my timid taste buds couldn’t continue to eat this soup straight up.To tame the heat, I made a meal for two out of the single can, pouring it atop two bowls filled with a base of brown rice and steamed sweet potato chunks.The soup itself contains black beans, potatoes, carrots, and corn all in a spicy, tomato base. On its own, if you can handle the kick, the entire can would make a good light meal for one.

Butternut Squash

While both Tonyand I enjoy butternut squash, anything involving a puree typically reminds usof baby food. Plus, while butternut squash itself has a light sweetness, most brands of butternut soup tend to load up the ingredients with syrupy sweeteners.Fortunately, Amy’s remedied both of these issues bythinning the squash to a smooth and soupy consistency, and only adding a hint of evaporated cane juice.The sugar enhanced the natural sweetness without overloading my taste buds. That said, the overall flavor is just slightly lacking… something that perhaps just a pinch of cayenne would fix.

Light in Sodium Lentil

Sadly, my first thought was, “hmm, needs salt.” Resisting the urge I reached for the pepper grinder instead. Both Tony and I thought this was a good move. While I often find Amy’s Chili (even the medium) a bit too spicy, this soup was on the bland side and lacked zing. Even after the peppering, the soup was still shouting for an additional herb or spice, but I couldn’t quite make out which one. Cumin? Paprika? Rosemary? Perhaps some future experimentation will tell.Beyond the flavor, I liked the heartiness of thissoup. Rich with lentils, and light on liquid, I could easily fill up on a whole can. But instead, I served it over brown rice, making a little lunchtime meal for two.

Thai Coconut (Tom Kha Phak)

This was a meal in a soup! A generous hand with the coconut milk makes this soup rich and provides a flavor base that isreminiscent of mild curry – perfectly warm and lightly spicy.In terms of consistency, it was mostly soup, with just a few bits of sweet potatoes, green beans, shiitakes, and meaty tofu to break up the fluidity. Since the additions were sparse, I added some cookedbrown rice, a small diced and steamed sweet potato, and a cup of spinach. It was a perfect match with Thai restaurant-quality goodness.While I love to make my own curries and coconut soups, this is a worthwhile shortcut purchase for a quick and easy dinner.
