Equipment

Notes

You can use whatever noodles you have on hand in place of the rotini. Short cuts of pasta work best in this soup. Noodles like: elbow macaroni, rigatoni, fusilli, penne, cavatappi, or farfalle.

If you’re using other noodles be sure to check the cooking time. I’d recommend simmering the soup for about 1 minute less than the lowest recommended cook time. Then start (carefully) tasting the noodles and remove the soup from the heat as soon as the pasta is al dente.

If you don’t have coconut milk on hand you can substitute heavy cream, almond/oat milk or even just omit the creamy element entirely and enjoy a broth-based soup.

This chickpea noodle soup will thicken as it cools. You can add more broth or additional coconut milk to loosen it up. Be sure to season to taste with salt again after adding more liquid.

To reheat this soup, just place it in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add broth or coconut milk to loosen it up and season to taste with salt. Heat until everything is warmed through and enjoy!
