Not Your Mom's Chick'n Noodle Soup: From Christa's Kitchen

I’m back again with another recipe to “reno”. I’ve been out of touch with my blogging due to having a touch of the flu. It was passed around my house for a few weeks, but I’m glad to be back in action again! When I was a kid my mom wouls always heat up a can of chicken noodle. There’s something about this classic home remedy that helps ease the pain of being sick. I will put my spin on it today.

Not your Mom’s “Chickn” Noodle Soup: From Christa’s Kitchen

What you need is:

A block of extra firm tofu
8-10 cups of vegan chicken broth or veggie broth
Mirepoix (diced:onion, celery, carrots)
Penne or spiral noodles
Salt and pepper
Big stock pot

1st prepare noodles to package directions and set aside
2nd cube tofu and sauté in pan until golden brown. Use a little oil if you want. Season with salt and pepper.  Set aside.
3rd sautee mirepoix for 5-6 minutes in stock pot. (I sauté with water but you can use a little oil)
4th add broth to mirepoix in pot and bring to boil
5th add tofu and noodles; reduce heat to low.
6th simmer for 5-10 minutes
7th serve and ENJOY!


This should make a huge pot of soup. If you’re not going to eat it all within a week, you can always freeze it for another time. It didn’t last that long in my house. I also want to mention that the tofu can be substituted for any white bean like: garbanzo, navy, or great northern.
