Why Do You Use Tofu in Your “Chicken” Noodle Soup?

I use tofu in this recipe for two reasons.

1. I personally dislike the texture of chicken when it is reheated.
2. Because tofu doesn’t need to be cooked, making this recipe is even quicker than it would be with chicken!

If you don’t enjoy tofu, feel free to exchange it out for chicken! Just add the chicken before adding the stock.

What Are Soup Mix Freezer Bags and How Do I Make Them?

Soup mix freezer bags are bags of prepared-then-frozen vegetables! The best part about my soup mix bags is that they don’t need to thaw, so, when you need a last minute meal, you can pull a bag out and have a big pot of “chicken” noodle soup or any other soup ready in 30 minutes or so!
