Get Well Noodle Soup

Get all the benefits of traditional chicken noodle soup - the natural antibiotic garlic and antioxidant rich carrots and onions - with none of the immune-suppressing problems associated with animal products. This satisfying soup is good when you're sick or well!

1 1/2 cup soy curls, broken into smaller pieces if desired
7 cups water
1/4 cup chicken style seasoning (get the recipe here: http://reddirtvegan.blogspot.com/2011/09/bbq-soy-curls.html)
3 carrots, diced or sliced
1 medium onion, diced
3 - 4 stalks celery, chopped or sliced
4 - 6 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1/2 lb of Tinkyada brown rice fettuccine noodles, broken in pieces
Salt to taste
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley (parsley works as a cough suppressant, demuculant, and can help dry up a runny nose)

Combine all ingredients except parsley in a large pot. You may reserve some of the garlic to add in later to preserve more of the illness-fighting properties. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and let boil for a few miuntes, until pasta begins to soften. Reduce heat and let simmer until pasta is al dente (just done, still a little firm) and veggies are tender-crisp. Add parsley just before serving. Enjoy and feel better!
