Servings 5 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves chopped garlic
  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 6 cups light broth
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 2 cups chopped greens - I used kale
  • 1 cup cooked chickpeas
  • 1 cup cooked pasta - I used brown rice shells
  • 2 tbsp hot water
  • 1.5 tbsp miso paste
  • 1.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a soup sized pot, over medium heat add oil, garlic and onions. Cook until translucent.
  • Add the broth and bring to a light simmer. Continue for 15 minutes.
  • Strain out the garlic and onions. (Not necessary, but helps make this recipe super kid friendly)
  • Return pot of broth back to stove over medium heat and add pasta, chickpeas, celery and greens. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until veggies are to your desired tenderness. Remove from heat, or lower heat to lowest setting.
  • In a small bowl add hot water, miso and lemon. Whisk together and add to soup. Combine well and add salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

- Really any miso will work for this recipe. I am totally obsessed with chickpea miso and used it here. If you are new to miso or have a next level picky eater in your life, chickpea or white miso are the way to go! - Chopped greens are my preferred choice for this soup, but go ahead and use whatever you'd like. My youngest likes when I use broccoli, that way he doesn't have to pick through the wilted greens. - For the light broth, simply use slightly less bouillon/concentrated stock when combining with the water than you typically would. If you have pre-made stock, just dilute with water. - Although I am sure you CAN freeze this soup, I wouldn't suggest it. However, if you do freeze and re-thaw with no problems, feel free to comment and tell me how wrong I was ;)
