Vegetarian Pho

Vegetarian Pho

When our favorite Pho restaurant was shut down because a Lowe's was moving in (gggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr), I couldn't find a vegetarian version of the soup anywhere. This is a combination of recipes I found online. It's pho-king delicious!

Definition of Pho from Wikipedia: "Pho (Vietnamese pronunciation: [fuh]) is a Vietnamese noodle soup, usually served with beef (pho bo) or chicken (pho ga).[1] The soup includes noodles made from rice and is often served with basil, lime, bean sprouts, and peppers that are added to the soup by the consumer."

This recipe takes less than an hour and will make four large bowls of pho.

I`m a lifelong vegie and a new recipe such as this is a treasure.

Yummy! An awesome approach to a vegetarian version of pho! Might I suggest adding thinly sliced scallions (green onions) and shallots..... It could round out the flavors a bit. Nice job btw.

Looks quite delicious,but i don't really think that it's "pho".It's more likely what's we Vietnamese call "bun".
