Chickpea Noodle Soup

Prep 10M | Cook 6-8Hr | Enjoy in 6-8Hr

This slow cooker soup brings all the flavours of a classic chicken noodle soup, and you can make it without chicken! Chickpeas provide plant-based protein, and the whole wheat noodles offer whole grains to keep you fueled for the day ahead. If you’d like an extra protein kick, add chicken to the recipe. This recipe is part of our February meal plan.

Ingredients

1 cup onion, diced

1 cup carrot, peeled and diced

1 cup celery, diced

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tsp fresh parsley

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp dried basil

1 tsp dried oregano

1 bay leaf

6 cups vegetable stock

1 can chickpeas, low sodium, drained and rinsed

1 cup whole wheat pasta, uncooked

Optional: 1 chicken breast (.5 lb) chicken breast cut into ½ inch cubes

Directions

  1. Mix all the ingredients except pasta in your slow cooker and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours.
  2. 20 – 30 minutes before serving, add pasta to slow cooker. Cover and let cook until pasta is tender, about 20 minutes.
  3. Serve and enjoy!
