This is the Mexican soup is the soup that every mom will give its kids when sick. I remember coming from school and seeing a huge pot of soup on the stove and asking myself who was sick. Now, for me, this vegan Mexican chicken soup is total comfort food, I prepare it for the days that I need a cozy meal, very cold days or the days that we will all have hectic schedules.
The original “Mexican caldo de pollo” recipe is made the same way but they add a piece of poultry to cook with the vegetables. The main difference with this version for vegan “caldo de pollo” is that I do not add the chicken. Other than that it is exactly the same.
