Hey pixels!! I know it’s spring but temperatures are still a bit cool. And it’s windy almost everyday. So it’s still time to eat soup. This is a vegan version of the traditional chicken noodle soup. Without cruelty and using shells instead of noodles. I love this shell shaped pasta. I use it frequently.
The key is to change the traditional chicken broth for a vegetable one. To change the chicken for a vegan version. You can buy it almost everywhere; another option if you can’t find the vegan chicken could be tofu.
I know, the vegan chicken is completely invisible in the picture but it’s there. I promise. Another change is to introduce boiled potato. But I love potatos, sorry not sorry…. No, really, this soup is amazing, perfect for a cool spring day (or a cold winter day).
Enjoy it, my happy pixels!!
