Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon canola oil
8 cups water
2 tablespoons water
2 large celery ribs, finely diced
3 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, minced
2 vegetable bouillon cubes
1 teaspoon salt free herb and spice seasoning mix

6 ounces baked pressed tofu, finely diced
salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil slowly with 2 Tbs water in a large soup pot.
  • Add the celery, carrots, garlic and onion.
  • Saute over medium heat for 10 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.
  • Add 8 cups of water, bouillon cubes, seasoning mix, and dried dill.
  • Bring to a simmer, then cook at gentle simmer for 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Raise the heat and bring to a more vigorous simmer.
  • Add the noodles and cook at a steady simmer for 5-8 minutes or until the noodles are al dente.
  • Add the diced tofu, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve at once.
  • *As the soup stands, the noodles quickly absorb the liquid.
  • If you plan on having leftovers of the soup, add a cup or so of additional water before you store and adjust the seasonings.
  • That way the soup can develop more flavor as it stands.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I would use less salt next time.

The tofu in this soup was a bit too firm for my liking. I would use a softer tofu next time.

Easy to make and delicious! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still very flavorful.
