A meal-worthy Vegetable Pasta Soup with a little bit of everything: delicious vegetable broth, carrots, lentil, spinach, toothsome pasta and Yondu Vegetable Umami. This Vegetable Pasta Soup cooks up quickly and makes for a simple one-bowl weeknight meal. I love the way the pasta is imbued with the veggies and lentil with flavorful Yondu Umami.

Notes
Do not overcook the pasta, keep in mind that the pasta will continue to cook as the soup cools.
Yondu Umami works as salt substitute too, so you can add salt as per your taste, if you want.
You can store cooled soup in an airtight container in a refrigerator. Soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5-6 days
This soup will thicken as it sits, so more vegetable broth can be added as desired.
Feel free to use any beans of choice if you do not have lentils or prefer not to use them, just skip it.
You can use any other type of pasta that is similarly sized to the rotini or fiori.
You can add any green leafy veggie as per your choice instead of spinach.
