Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 3 celery stalks chopped
- 2 carrots peeled and diced
- 4 cups vegan "chicken" broth (1 litre) or vegetable broth (store bought or make it with my vegan chicken seasoning)
- 2 cups water (450ml)
- 2 cups vegan "chicken" chucks chopped small*
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 10 ounces linguine (285g) broken in half for smaller pieces (check that it’s vegan)
- pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pot over a medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and cook for 5 minutes until soft but not browned.
- Add the vegetable stock, water, vegan ‘chicken’ chunks and thyme and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add the linguine and simmer for 10 minutes or until the noodles are cooked but not mushy.
- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- This soup will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days without the noodles getting too mushy. If you’re going to store it for longer, store the noodles and soup separately and combine before heating.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Note: instead of vegan ‘chicken’ pieces, try chunks of potato, tofu, white beans or cauliflower.
- You can find different types of vegan chicken. I like Quorn or Tofurkey. There’s also seitan based ones, soy chunks, TVP etc…
- For the noodles, I like linguine - it stays firmer for longer than spaghetti and has more of a traditional ‘chicken noodle soup’ look. You can substitute any pasta noodles you like though!
