Notes
- If you are not into rice, you can use quinoa instead
- Instead of soy curls, use 1.5 cups shredded seitan
- You can also add in a can of black beans to add more volume to the soup. Increase salt by a little bit to account for the added beans.
- Nutfree To make this recipe without nuts, use 1/4 cup blended tofu or use 2 cups nondairy milk instead of 2 cups of broth
