Not many meals are more comforting, warming, and satiating as soup! So, here is a list of my favorite vegan soups, bisques, chilis, and stews.

"It’s no secret that we are crazy for noodles! We love them when it’s hot, and when it’s cold, and especially when they’re suspended in a piquant broth surrounded by perfectly cooked vegetables. You can find dried udon noodles in the Asian section of many grocery stores, or fresh udon noodles at many Asian markets. They vary considerably in size, shape, and consistency, so you might want to try a few different kinds to find your favorite." Reprinted with permission.
