1-minute breakfast soup powder: Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup

Today I'm introducing a product that's going to take care of a mom's breakfast: Garuseonsaeng Seoritae's Corn Bean Cream Soup. Lately my kid started daycare, and I've been out of my mind all day just trying to get her adjusted, ugh. She only stays 1-2 hours before I have to go pick her up again, so it's not even a break, honestly it just means more prep work for me haha. Because of all that, skipping meals has become the norm and I've basically been eating only one meal a day... I can't keep living like this! So I went looking for something simple I could just eat quickly, and that's when I found this.

What is Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup?

Eating simply shouldn't mean sacrificing health, right? Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup is a 100% plant-based instant health food made with natural whole ingredients. No synthetic additives, no artificial coloring.

Plus, with soybeans, corn, oats, and almonds added, you get 8.9g of protein per 45g serving!

Oh, and of course, as someone running a food blog, I can't tolerate eating something that doesn't taste good haha, so taste matters too. This has a reasonable amount of sugar in it, so the taste is actually pretty good haha. Unsweetened might be the 'better' choice, but you know how it is — if it doesn't taste good, you never reach for it again, and then it just expires and gets thrown out. I've had so many products like that happen to me, so I just don't eat things that aren't tasty, sorry not sorry. This one's flavored only with unrefined raw sugar and sea salt, so the ingredient list is much cleaner than other powder products.

Just add water: how to make the soup and how thick it gets

When you order Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup, it comes with a measuring spoon, so you don't need to prepare anything else — just mix it with warm or cold water and drink it, haha. At first I thought, it's called a 'soup,' do I need to boil it? But once you add cooking to the mix, it gets annoying real fast, so honestly the best option is doing nothing at all except mixing it. That's exactly what Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup is, haha.

So you just scoop the powder with the measuring spoon into a soup bowl, add water, and that's it. So easy, right? This is perfect for a busy morning or a quick lunch!

Powder in, water in, stir, done!! The powder comes in a zipper bag so you just reseal it with the measuring spoon tucked inside. Storage is simple too — just keep it sealed somewhere cool, out of direct sunlight. Could it get any simpler, haha. Stir it like this and it dissolves in under a minute! Protein powders usually need a shaker to dissolve properly, but this one dissolves fast even with just a spoon.

And just like that, the powder fully dissolves! This is the consistency at the standard measurement — I used filtered water for measuring, and if you want it thicker, you can add a bit more powder.

Does it taste beany? The honest flavor review

I don't do well with anything too thick on an empty stomach, so this consistency felt just right to me haha. And now for the most important part — the taste!!!!! I was a little nervous at first since it's called 'bean cream,' but the moment I took one spoonful, the impression was: it's mostly a sweet corn flavor! No flavoring added, yet somehow it tastes like this — I don't get it. Based on the ingredients, Korean soybeans make up 35.3%, so I expected a strong soy milk flavor, but actually the corn flavor comes through much stronger. And thanks to the oats and almonds, it's mostly corn plus a nutty flavor.

I have mild lactose intolerance, so I drink lactose-free milk, and even soups sometimes upset my stomach if I'm not careful. But this is just mixed with water and still tastes this good, so I wasn't worried about eating it on an empty stomach! There was zero beany aftertaste either, so I fed it to my husband without telling him what it was, and he said it tasted like corn soup minus the greasiness haha. I totally agree — soups usually have that particular greasy quality, but this one has none of that, the nutty oat flavor is much stronger. So it leans more toward a corn-plus-oat-milk vibe.

Does Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup work as a breakfast substitute?

No worries about lactose or milk fat, and this quality? I think I'll be eating this every morning haha. I expected 'soup' to mean something heavy, but this is light enough to mix in a tumbler and take along for daycare drop-off. It also dissolves well in cold water, so it mixes quickly even with plain bottled water. In a rush, you could just grab the powder packet and mix it wherever you are.

Anyway, if you're like me — skipping breakfast, running around all day without a moment to spare — let's at least make sure we get our meals in, ugh. If you check out the Garuseonsaeng Seoritae site, there are tons of other easy meal options besides the corn bean cream flavor. Since corn was this good, now I'm curious about the chocolate flavor too. Once I finish this one, I'm planning to get the chocolate flavor, haha. After chocolate, I might try the mugwort one too. I'll work my way through them one by one, haha.

If you dislike artificial flavors and want an easy-on-the-stomach nutritious grain powder, I highly recommend Garuseonsaeng Seoritae Corn Bean Cream Soup! This one is genuinely delicious, haha.
