How To Make Chicken Noodle Soup Without Chicken

You will never know this Chickenless-Chicken Noodle Soup doesn’t actually have chicken in it. It’s perfect for vegetarians. Make your vegetarian friends happy with this cozy soup.

I would have to give up chicken soup if I gave up eating meat.

Or so at least I thought.

I ate a lot of chicken and stars, so hang my head.

I know that has enough sodium for a week.

Or possibly a month.

And I love it anyway.

But once I discovered Better than Bouillon (nope not an ad…I just love it) made a no chicken base (and no beef base too) lots of things opened up.

And I mean lots of things.

As a result, I can now recreate a lot of recipes.

For me, it’s probably just as horrible as Chicken and Stars, but whatever .

And yes, it does amazingly taste like chicken.

Then again…so many things taste like chicken.

Refrigerator: Keep pasta and soup separate for three to four days.
Freezer: Allow soup to cool fully, then transfer to a freezer-safe container (do not include pasta) and freeze. When it’s time to serve, place the container in the fridge for the entire night, reheat in a pot, and then top bowls of soup with noodles.

And I’m so glad it was.

Before I could make a version of chicken soup without chicken, I had no idea how much I missed it.

This recipe is still among the most popular ones on the website.

Like consistently top five year round.

So others are looking for it too.

And I’m more than happy to provide that recipe.

I’ve made this soup in many varieties.

Including not adding the fake chicken.

Honestly, it doesn’t need it.

In fact, I really like it better without the pieces of fake chicken.

To be honest, though, I didn’t particularly enjoy the chicken chunks in my typical chicken noodle soup.

I’m a carb girl through and through, what more can I say? .

However, I include the fake chicken because my husband enjoys it.

I have tried a variety of noodles for this soup.

All work, but I really like the wide noodles.

In this case I used egg noodles.

Especially during the winter months, this soup is prepared multiple times a month.
