The BEST Vegan Chicken(less) Noodle Soup

Step 1

Dice the vegetables and add the olive oil to a large pot on medium high heat. Add the veggies to the pot with and a pinch of salt. Stir and saute for 5 minutes. Then, add the flour and stir to coat. Slowly pour in the water while continuing to stir. Finally, cover the pot, turn the heat to high, and bring the water to a rolling boil.

Step 2

Once boiling, turn the heat to medium high and stir in the bouillon powder. Add your pasta and cook uncovered for 9 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

While that cooks, measure your soy curls and use your hands to break them up into bite-sized pieces. When the pasta is finished, add the soy curls to the pot, turn the heat to medium, and let the soup simmer, uncovered, for another 10 minutes.

Step 4

Next, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let it sit for at least 5 minutes. This step is optional but highly recommended, as it lets the noodles soak up even more of that delicious chicken-y flavor.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasonings as you wish. If it’s too thick for your taste, feel free to add 1-2 more cups of water until the broth reaches your desired consistency. Serve in a big bowl with crackers or a slice of fresh bread with vegan butter. Enjoy!
