Trader Joe’s Garden Patch Veggie Soup.
How I love thee. Let me count the ways.
With baked potato and carrot fries.
With roasted asparagus (which was tossed in coconut oil, s&p, and roasted at 425* for 15 minutes) brown rice, and red pepper flakes.
With sautéed kale (tossed with olive oil, and s&p) and a hummus (3-layer from TJ’s) + spinach sandwich dipped in ‘til the bread gets soggy.
I finished 3/4 of the carton by the end of yesterday and today my lovely mother bought 3 more cartons for the rest of the week. I’m officially obsessed with this soup. It’s not too tomato-y and it has a pleasant green taste that is not overpowering in the slightest. It’s high in iron, low in calories, and has 2 servings of vegetables per serving. I highly recommend this soup when you’re not in the mood to make your own. Though I have to admit…this is better than any vegetable soup I’ve ever made!
As you all know from my last post, I’ve been sick since Saturday. It’s been miserable. I was going to go to school today because we had a field trip to the Shakespeare Theater but I woke up feeling gross so I had to miss it. I hate missing out but I’m glad I stayed home, ate my soup, and rested because I feel a lot better now. Not 100% but getting there. Thank you all for your well wishes, and seriously…go buy that soup!

I definitely will try that next time I'm at Trader Joe's. I also really want to try their carrot ginger soup which I bet is great
Oh my. Those dishes look so good! You have such great ideas with your food. :) The next time I go to TJ's I will definitely try to find that soup. The hummus sandwich was my favorite of the meals...but they all looked so delicious.
Sorry you are sick. My school is filled with sick people, luckily I am not one of them! Get better soon!
your food always looks incredible shelby! :D neeeeeed that soup. mmmm soup
aww... feel better!!!
♥
Shoo, I didn't even see that one when I was there Saturday! I grabbed the b-nut squash and am pumped.
I'm so sorry you're still feeling icky! I'm sending good health vibes your way, puddingpop! xoxo
Aw feel better miss shelby. That soup should help with getting well soon!
Doesn't TJ's have the BEST products? I adore them. All of them!
I LOVE that soup. It's so delish! Next to a grilled cheese with tofutti slices...not sure it gets any better.
Hope you feel better, love.
I miss Trader Joes so much! Wish I had one closer to me!
Asparagus AND kale. Be still my heart. I adore them both!
I am soo happy you've been enjoying my posts lately. Thanks for your comment love and support. Muah!!!!!
Oh my goodness! HOLY YUM!!!
I never go to Trader Joes even though there is one near me. I think I might stop by just to try this soup!
I will have to look for that soup! Sounds really good! Your variations look so good with it too!
Thanks for the soup recommendation, and I hope you feel better soon!
this post is so quick and cute! <3 have a great, stress free week/halloween! :)
I am also obsessed with this soup!! One of my favorite ways to eat it is with whole wheat cous-cous or brown rice mixed in...or with oven fries on the side. Yum!
feel better soon! dipping a hummus sandwich in tomato soup sounds divine!
Aww sorry to hear you're still feeling badly. Get well soon, and I will be sure to pick up this soup on my next TJ's trip!
How funny! Last week I bought this at TJ's and totally demolished the carton this week and got two more. It's a new staple! Thanks for the great serving suggestions -- I've just been having it plain but these look much better. By the way, love your blog!!!
that soup looks awesome!
I have seen these, but never tried any. Now I will! Thanks so much for the recommendation! Hope you're feeling better!!!
Oh honey!
Isn't soup the most comforting thing when sick? Besides mommies?
You poor little princess. Keep getting better bb!
I have to admit - as much as I love Ireland, I miss Trader Joe's and Whole Foods far to much to stay here indefinitely. I'll have to try that when I can get my hands on it!
Feel better hun - being sick is the worst!
Love you!
I will definitely pick that up the next time I am in TJ's. Looks yummy!
That soup does look lovely. I've never thought of putting things like kale in soup.
Hope you feel better soon!
I'm dying to make some carrot fries, yours look incredible.
i just discovered TJs this month. it's about an hour away from us, but some of the specialty items were so much cheaper than what we can get in b-town. so the spousal unit and i have agreed to go there once per month to stock up on staples.
as for organic tomato soup, that stuff is the bomb! i've used it as add ins for chili and a spicy/peanut/pumpkin soup. sure it's fine solo, but it really amps up a recipe. low sodium too!
Next time at TJs I'll have to look out for that soup! Yum!!
Glad you're feeling better :)
I hope you feel better soon, soup always helps and sleep!

Aww love, feel better!!
I will definitely keep an eye out for that soup when i'm home for thanksgiving :) i'm soooo down to eat some of that soup alongside toasty, soggy bread!! hahaha....
ALL of this looks so tasty. It's always nice to have some pre made soups around. You did well adding your own touch to it.
Off to TJ's. Feel better Shelby!
Well you've got me intrigued! Curious to try this stuff, if I can conquer my fear of the lines at TJ's.
I hope you're feeling much, much better by now. I'm sure that veggie soup helps. Trader Joe's soups are amazing. And so are your culinary creations to pair with it, as usual.
Love ya!

Yes ma'am! *adds garden patch veggie soup to shopping list*
Aww, I hope you feel 100% healthy very very soon! *healthy vibes*
Ooo, that looks delicious...especially with those fries (I never thought of fries with soup but now I think about it, what a good idea!).
Oh how I miss having a Trader Joes in town.
I miss Trader Joes! I loved it growing up but there's not one where I live now. All of your ideas look delicious!
Well, well I need to get my hands on some of this soup! This looks amazing especially with the Kale! I heart Kale sooo much!
Thanks for the great posts!
Happy Friday Doll ;)
Hopefully you are feeling better by now :)
I love all the ways you dressed up your veggie soup. Looks very tasty.
