When you’re feeling under the weather or just in need of some warmth and comfort, it’s pretty undeniable that chicken noodle soup is the go-to meal. But if you don’t eat chicken, we came up with a vegan version made with chickpeas that is just as cozy and satisfying.

looks yum except for the nutritional yeast which contains too much MSG – a neuroantagonist
I made this soup for Christmas.🍲 😋
I've just recently gone vegan(ish). This recipe is fantastic. I didn't have nooch. I used white miso. I so appreciate no faux chicken. No it doesn't taste like chicken.
I am. Vegan and this is delicious!! Taste just like Chicken soup! Very easy.
😋 Made it. Love it and love the nutritional yeast.
Question: does the nutritional yeast lose it nutritional value when cooked?
I made this dish using a slow cooker for 6 hours at high setting. I cooked the ditalini pasta separately in a pot until al dente since it would have come out mushy if I put it in slow cooker. I also added mushrooms for added umami flavor. It came out good. This is a keeper in my collection of vegan dishes.
I don't get the half up half down hair style. This is not the first time I've seen her with this look, it's so distracting to me lol! Just pick one. Either would be beautiful! So off topic hahaaha! 🙄
OMG, when you/she took that bite, I had to cover my watering mouth. I’m def cooking this within the week! Will add a squeeze of lemon too!
It really stinks that in order to view the recipe (after clicking the link in the description) you must sign up.
Made this last night! Been a vegetarian for 30 years and missed this comforting soup. Looking for a vegetarian chicken noodle soup …came across your recipe. Wow! Sooo good! I cannot wait to have it again for lunch. Thanks so much for this awesome recipe!
Looks great. Very similar to my standard vegetable soup, just with the added chickpeas! Just curious though, why didn't you just make your own vegetable stock from the ingredients that you were already cooking? I make vegetable soup all the time, and the mirepoix base is perfect to creating my stock. I actually throw in a parsnip (just one it's potent!) because it adds so much great flavor. This is a great base recipe, as so much can be added to it to go in so many delicious directions! Thank you, keep these videos coming! Would love to see more vegetarian/vegan friendly recipes!
And they have now pay walled the recipe link. I guess I won’t be making this. 🙁
I dont peel my carrots, thats where all the vitamins are, I just scrub w/dish soap & brush.
I always cook and add the pasta separately, in any soup, so that it doesn't swell up and become soggy (not to mention 'drinking' all the broth) as the leftovers refrigerate. A tiny bit of oil keeps it from sticking together and I then store the cooked pasta in an airtight container in the fridge.
❄️❄️ I’m staying warm inside with some homemade soup. This is a great looking soup you made! I have been really into soups lately and I’m always looking for different recipes and cooking tips. I’m happy to find your channel. I also make cooking videos. I love to learn from other talented creators like you! Hopefully we can learn from each other!
Made this and LOVED IT!!! Unbelievably flavorful and satisfying. I was suspicious if it would taste as good without chicken and it exceeded my expectations!
An absolute home run! Thank you, Ashley! This recipe freezes well. I added a tablespoon or two of butter at the end. It took the flavor to the next level. I understand that butter is not vegan.
Raise your hand if ya were mortally injured when she poured out the chickpea juice down the sink!!! #sad #savetheaquafaba
This looks so delicious. Thank you so much!!
imma make this for my next staff gathering!
Great video, can’t wait to try this— And the chicks will thank us!
My cholesterol is too high and my niece is cutting out meat, so I am trying meatless recipes. I made this soup as instructed. It’s ok. Next time (and I would make it again), I would put half the amount of chickpeas, more ditalini and more broth (since the additional pasta will soak it up). Might go a little lighter on the thyme, but I probably put too much. It is a good base soup that you can customize, just omit chickpeas and add other veggies and/or beans. Also, I used Better Than Bouillon vegetable. Good stuff.
this recipe was delicious! i substituted the pasta for 1 cup of red lentils & added some lemon juice to my bowl of soup, yummy!!!
I made this last night! Like many soups, I think it's better the next day.
I love that Ashley's kitchen looks like she's got a TARDIS in it. Adorable.
Thank you for having a veggie recipe!!! Please do more!
So. Incredibly. Delicious.
Yum yum yum! What a great and hearty recipe
Mmm, looks delicious. Thanks for the vegan recipe.
Oh my goodness, so excited to see vegan recipes!
