Chunky Chickpea Noodle Soup with Brussel Sprouts

1-pot chickpea noodle soup in 30 minutes! A healthy take on the classic packed with veggies to keep you well. A comforting soup for all year round.

I used to love getting sick as kid, because it meant I could eat all the Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup I wanted, washed down with Fruit Punch Gatorade that turned my tongue and lips redder than my stuffy nose.

Fighting my first cold as a vegan, I definitely daydreamed about those sodium laced red and white Campbells soup cans.

There is something so healing and restorative about broth.

Everyone around me seems to be coming down with something lately, so I figured I’d head off any potential bugs by making a vegan version of this classic.

So, just in case I catch the sniffles, I’ll be adequately prepared, you know?

This Chunky Chickpea Noodle Soup with Brussel Sprouts has all of the same flavors I loved about being sick as a kid, with some significant healthy upgrades, like a lower sodium content, three times the chunky veg (including the unexpectedly amazing addition of brussel sprouts), and protein to boot.

This soup is perfect enjoyed served on its own, with crackers or crusty bread, or as a hearty side to a light meal.

It’s hard to stop at one bowl.

Let’s all stay well in the new year with a soup that’s as nutritious as it is comforting and delicious.

Oh, and ditch the gatorade for a big glass of Kombucha, because gut health is so much cooler than red-tinged tongues.

If you make a pot of this Chunky Chickpea Noodle Soup with Brussel Sprouts I’d love to hear what you think!
