- Olive Oil: Swap for water or broth for an oil-free recipe.
- Mushrooms: If you don’t like mushroom, it’s ok to leave these out.
- Dried Herbs: If you want to swap for fresh herbs, use 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs to replace each 1 tsp of dried.
- Crushed Tomato: If you only have diced tomatoes, that’s fine too.
- Broth: Any homemade or store-bought carton or cube vegetable broth works.
- Lasagna Noodles: Use any variety you like. If you need the recipe to be gluten-free, use gluten-free noodles. Just note cooking time on the packaging and adjust accordingly.
- Tofu Ricotta: You can use my quick and easy tofu ricotta recipe or use any store-bought vegan ricotta or regular ricotta that you like for an optional topping. Mozzarella or parmesan are also yummy!

Notes & Tips
- Lasagna noodles can be swapped for any kind of pasta noodle. Just note the cooking time will vary based on shape.
- If you are planning to make this ahead of time, cook the noodles separately and add them when you are ready to eat. The noodles will continue to absorb liquid once cooked.
- Veggies can be customized as needed to preference or availability. If you don’t have zucchini and mushroom, either can be omitted or swapped for bell pepper or carrot. You can also stir in a handful of spinach at the end for some greens.
- If you have a vegan parmesan or mozzarella you like, those also work well for toppings.
Storing
- The soup and noodles can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days separately.
- Reheat as needed on the stovetop or in the microwave as needed.
- Leave any toppings off until serving.

Can this be frozen?
Yes it can. Let it cool completely then freeze in heavy duty freezer bags or a freezer-safe container. Thaw in the fridge before reheating. Note it does have pasta in it so the texture of that may be a bit different after freezing and thawing.
I made the vegan ricotta soup, my sister who isn’t vegan couldn’t believe how delicious the soup tested. I showed her your soup recipes and she definitely is going to make all of them for the cold months ahead.
Thank you Deryn for being so considerate of others.
