I’m not a morning person. And by the time I am done with work at the end of the day, I like to go home and relax…which, is why I prefer to get my fitness on over my lunch hour. This, therefore leads to a short time frame for me to workout, go home shower and then grab something to eat.
So what does my lunch usually consist of on a daily basis? I’m not going to lie…it’s not always hearty and healthy…or enough to satisfy my appetite.
Here are items on my usual lunch menu:
1. protein shake including a blended banana or other pieces of fruit like strawberries or blueberries
2. peanut butter and jelly toast
3. crackers and cheese to go
4. any fruit laying around the house like an apple, orange or banana
5. a bowl of cold cereal or heat and go oatmeal
So as you can see, not exactly the lunch of champions.
Here’s what I have decided to try out for my new lunchtime time crunch…Campbell’s Slow Kettle Soup, which I found at Walmart.
The incredible ease and taste of Campbell’s Slow Kettle Soups makes my lunchtime possible during my busy day! I popped one of these bad boys in the microwave for a few minutes and bam, I’m ready to chow down.
While Campbell’s® Slow Kettle® soup has always been microwaved in separate bowls from the container, for best results it is recommended to heat on the stove gently over medium heat in saucepan, stirring occasionally. However, you can microwave the soup in its container, per the following instructions:
Microwave: Microwave ovens vary. Time is approximate. Uneven microwave heating may cause popping, movement of the container and/or splattering. Discard plastic cap; carefully remove and discard metal lid. Cover with microwavable plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH 2 minutes. Let stand in microwave 1 minute. Carefully remove from microwave, grasping container on both sides with potholders. Stir before serving. Note: After tasting, if you like warmer soup, heat an additional 15 seconds.
You can’t get any quicker than a 5 minute lunch! And, a delicious one at that. After getting my workout in, making my soup was quick, easy and tasty. And back to work I went satisfied that not only did I get my workout in, I got a good lunch too.

Those would be perfect for my husband to take to work. He loves soup.
That sure does sound good! I make all my own soups but if I was in a hurry, I might grab this instead. Yum!
I’ve tried this line of soups, and I really like them. I am a soup lover though, so I’m a bit biased. I love their Tomato and Sweet Basil Bisque, its delicious!
Tomato and Sweet Basil Bisque is one of my favorite soups ever. I didn’t know Campbells had one?
This is sounds great for when I am having a bad day – I need something quick but delicious. x
I agree with you. Eating a warm soup like this one will definitely improve on a bad day.
It totally warms you from the inside out doesn’t it, such a wonderful winter warmer.
I love soup and this one looks delicious. I would enjoy this with a warm piece of bread.
I have not seen these before, these would be perfect for my husband;s lunch – always looking for new ideas!
I’ve always been a fan of Campbell’s soups when I need a quick and hearty lunch. I haven’t tried these yet, but I definitely will.
These would be great for a treat for my kids at school. They get SO sick of sandwiches everyday that I try to make different things. Pizza and other things, so this would be a fun change up!
Soup is so comforting in the winter. I love food packaged in a single serving size.
I love to keep items like this in my office drawer. Perfect for times that I need to eat in and save my money versus going out to eat during the workday.
I think these fast prepared options aren’t always so healthy either, but they certainly beat fast food. I like how they at least have healthier options than some worse food.
I get these for my husband all the time for his lunches – he loves them!
We eat a lot of soup. It’s a quick and easy lunch for me and easy for my husband to take to work. I’ll have to pick up a few of these and give them a taste test.
The chicken noodle soup would be my favorite. They are easy to use and cook. LOVE!
Campbell’s always has the tastiest soups! I love how portable these are so my husband can pack them for lunch at work!
These sound great. I am always looking for for easy and quick lunch ideas!
I agree, these would be perfect to for my husband’s lunch at work!
I would love to try these at home. I think my kids would like them too every once in a while.
I have soup several times a week in the winter time. These sound delicious and easy to prepare.
I’ve not seen these in our store (yet) but that roasted chicken noodle soup sounds amazing. They will be perfect for the workweek!
I love these soups! They are perfect for a quick lunch when I want something hot but don’t want to actually cook anything lol!
The tuskun style white bean soup is one I want to try. I have used cambells kettle soups for a while now since I been diagosned with gasteroparies. I’m glad to see some other choices i never would have thought of to try.
i have never tried this one before. i love campbells. I will have to try this next time i’m at the store.
This looks really good, I love Campbells soups. They are the best!
This sounds like a great quick and easy lunch idea. I am always so busy so this is perfect. I will have to pick up some soup.
This would be perfect for sick me who can’t stand up for so long to cook without feeling dizzy.
I have tried these before and loved them! It is perfect for lunch even when at home.
Thanks for sharing 🙂 #client
