Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I like to make my own soups and dips. I own a dehydrator and often dry my own veggies for those uses but honestly, it takes a LOT of fresh veggies and herbs to make the amount of a mix you get with this product! So I feel that it is a good value at $12.95. I like the fact that this product is pure vegetable and herb. No fillers, No MSG, no weird preservatives I can't pronounce. A silica preserving packet is included in the container. The caloric content is 58 calories per 1/4 cup dry product. 0 fat and cholesterol and only 49 mg of sodium per serving. Ingredients as listed in order on the label: Dehydrated carrots, Onion, tomatoes, peas, celery, green bell peppers, green beans and parsley. This makes a nice soup base with water but I prefer to use chicken or vegetable broth. I also like to reconstitute the mix and add it to whipped cream cheese or greek yogurt for a nice dip. I also reconstitute and add it to scrambled eggs! It is great added to your meatloaf or hamburger mixtures too. Some uses do call for it to be rehydrated but there are other uses that benefit from the crunchiness of the dehydrated form. Put some in your coffee grinder (I have one that is used exclusively for herb and spice grinding) for a powdery version. If you have a large pepper mill you can put it in there and grind a nice veggie seasoning on anything as you would with pepper! There are many uses for this product and I am enjoying getting creative with it. I recommend this vegetable "soup" mix. I wish they would rename it Vegetable "EVERYTHING" Mix.
