Hi Ali! I am Mexican and grew up on my mom making me fideo soup. This is pretty darn close to it, the sweet potatoe noodles give it a similar taste, and so warm to my heart! I love it. I add chicken to it and can’t get enough. 🙂

This soup is AMAZING. I’ve been getting over a cold and really needed some soup, and this was perfect. I almost always have these ingredients on hand (besides the avocado) and it was brilliant of you to put them together in a comforting soup. This was easy and delicious, my picky boyfriend even gave it 4 out of 5 stars. Thank you so much!

I am not really into sweet potatoes, what do you suggest I can replace them with?

I just made this for dinner – the flavor is amazing. It’s my first time “spiralizing” and this was a great first experience! So tasty!

Marcia, I’m so happy to hear you’re liking spiralizing (and your family is too!)

Forgot to add this to my post: Do you get emails from America’s Test Kitchen? In case the answer is no, recently they did a test of spiralizers and guess which one won? PADERNO! I guess you are just ahead of your time!

I have a question about your ** comment on the sweet potatoes. I don’t understand what you mean: “(be careful not to push the knife all the way through the sweet potato!)” Do you mean that if you push the knife all the way through the sweet potato, you won’t have the proper surface to attach it to the spiralizer? Sorry, new at spiralizing!

Made our fave plant-based pasta sauce last night and used zucchini for the noodles. Made reg. pasta for my husband, gave him a taste of mine and at the end of dinner, he said he’d have that next time…SUCCESS! Can hardly wait to try this soup recipe as well as the potato & green bean salad. Oh it’s going to be a tasty week at our house thanks to you Ali!

Made this soup last night…yum! Added shrimp for protein when I added the cilantro – VERY good 🙂 I also doubled the recipe so we have leftovers. My husband added crushed tortilla chips to it and really liked it that way too. Oh, and we topped each bowl of soup with a bit of sour cream 😉
Keep these easy paleo recipes coming – they are GREATLY appreciated!

Tried this and it was great! My husband loved it too. We added some chicken to make it a little more filling. Took the leftovers to work the next day and it tasted even better.
