    We recently sampled a few products each from True Primal, and BeanVivo Organics. True Primal produces a line of gluten-free and paleo-friendly soups, most of which are beef, but a couple are chicken. Bean Vivo specializes in seasoned legumes.

    While I preferred the varieties of True Primal’s chicken soup (Roasted Chicken, Tuscan-Style Chicken) to the beef (Savory Wedding, Beef and Vegetable), the latter were fine if doctored up. The beef soups were a little one note as far as flavor but I added fish sauce, which helped a lot. A little lemon or cider vinegar should work if you don’t have fish sauce on hand. The beef soups are organic certified, but the chicken soups are not (although they are pastured).

    We tried BeanVivo’s Coconut Curry Chickpeas, Baja Black Beans, and Three Bean Vegan Chili. We used the chickpeas and black beans in tacos, which we enjoyed. We absolutely did not like the flavor of the vegan chili, but this was the first time we tried vegan chorizo.
