Grow Sprouts Indoors for A Nutritious Crunch All Year Long!
I grow my own sprouts all year long on my kitchen counters… and believe me, it couldn’t be easier! All you need are some sprouting seeds (I like these alfalfa seeds, and these bean sprouts), wide-mouth mason jars, sprouting lids, and some tap water. An endless supply of sprouts will be at your culinary fingertips anytime.
I love grabbing a handful of alfalfa sprouts to add to a sandwich or a wrap, or adding a handful of bean sprouts to stir fries or ramen soup. I put together a list of all my favorite sprouting supplies – so you can enjoy fresh sprouts any time!

What’s In This Plant Based Pho Recipe?
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Vegetable Stock or Bouillon: I use Better than Bouillon’s Vegetable Base which is great and low sodium. Has a nice flavor and is very pantry staple friendly.
- Soy Sauce or Tamari: to flavor the broth and give the soup a rich and salty flavor. You can use a low sodium soy sauce, or use tamari which is gluten free!
- Garlic: raw garlic makes this broth!
- Rice Noodles or Long GF Pasta: We are big fans of rice noodles on this homestead, which are awesome for soups and stir frys. I like these Thai noodles which are thicker than the traditional vermicelli.
- Green Onions: from the garden
- Bean Sprouts: my guide to home-sprouting coming soon!
- Lime, freshly squeezed is best!
- Thai Basil
- Sriracha: add as much as you like for spice… I load this sriracha on!
One Pot Vegan Pho Soup
This vegan pho recipe is the perfect one-pot lunch or dinner! I love a good One Pot Meal, especially during these fall months when the weather starts to turn cooler. Cooking everything in one pot is one of my favorite ways to get a meal on the table fast! All the food gets cooked at once which makes cleaning up a breeze.
And the stove does all the work for you, so you can focus on other kitchen prep while the food cooks. One Pot meals are awesome for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – check out my link here to see other tasty one pot meals that are ready in no time!
This vegan pho soup is definitely a great adaptation of the original – but just a note that this version is not authentic to Vietnamese cuisine. It has a lot of the same ingredients that you can get at a restaurant: rice noodles, Thai basil, bean sprouts, sriracha, etc. But I purposely left the beef out of this dish to veganize it.
How Do I Make This Easy Vegan Pho Recipe?
- In a pot, heat the vegetable stock, soy sauce, garlic and bring to a boil. Add the noodles and cook to package instructions.
- Once noodles are finished cooking, top with green onions, bean sprouts, lime juice, basil, and sriracha to taste.
