This vegan soup is the definition of hearty. With both butter beans and chickpeas, there's no shortage of protein in this meatless meal. Fideos are short, golden strips of broken noodles, commonly used in Spanish and South American cooking. You can use angel hair pasta if you can't find fideos; just break them into small pieces with your hands. Harissa, a Tunisian spicy pepper paste, brings the heat to liven up this hot soup.
