Mom's Crazy Cooking Challenge - Chicken(less) Noodle Soup

This month Tina, from Mom's Crazy Cooking, announced that her cooking challenge would be chicken noodle soup.

My first thought was "Darn I can't participate."

However I e-mailed Tina to see if substitutes for chicken could be made...such as tofu.

She was receptive to the idea, so today I bring you chickenless noodle soup care of The Type A Housewife.

Her directions were easy to follow and came out very tasty.

I started things off by sauteeing my mirepoix (carrots, onions, and celery).


The process from start to finish probably took 30 minutes, which is not bad to whip up a quick and healthy meal for your family.

The finished product:


Then being enjoyed by Caroline who really only wanted it for the cool little noodles.




Be sure to head over to Mom's and see what other chicken noodle soups my fellow bloggers are featuring.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Come back tomorrow as I will have a giveaway...YEAH!  Just because Christmas has passed doesn't mean that I can't still give you a gift right?

  5. A perfect soup for those who don't want real meat in their meals, and well worth trying by anyone else who would like to discover the adaptiveness of tofu. Thanks for sharing and I hope you'll check out my Entry #52 in the Challenge.

  6. I love those cute noodles too. I serve them to my 22 year old son, who thinks they are cool too. I can't remember what they are called, but I think it starts with a D?! I will check it out at the grocery. Thanks for a great recipe!
