This chickpea noodle soup is a simple and fast vegan version of classic chicken noodle soup. It is comforting and light and perfect for cold days or when you are feeling under the weather. I use chickpeas in place of chicken, a vegan “chicken” broth cube as seasoning, along with onion, celery and carrot for veggies.
This recipe was part of my 5 ingredient budget recipes video on Youtube. I wanted to share some affordable vegan recipes with only 5 simple ingredients you might already have in your pantry. Ive adjusted the recipe for this blog post but this soup recipe can be made with only 5 ingredients if you omit the celery and bay leaf. The whole recipe only makes about 4 servings so make sure to double this recipe to serve more people.
