This easy pasta soup recipe is the perfect winter or autumn recipe! The shredded tofu in this is the perfect swap for chicken and helps add a lil bit of protein too.  Also how cute is this pasta shape!? Does anyone know what its called? I found this at the European Grocer at the South Melbourne Market but you can use any other small pasta such as pastina or orzo. Save this easy vegan recipe and send it to someone who loves pasta recipes
