So, easy recipes have been the trend lately and this one is no exception. This is a super simple soup for those chilly days and uses just 5 ingredients. When I go out for sushi, I enjoy starting the meal with a light soup and/or salad. Miso was on the menu last time so I gave it a try and enjoyed it greatly. Yay for trying new things!
Of course, I can't go out for sushi as often as I'd like due to time and budget, but I was craving the soup and decided to give it a try. During a previous trip to Trader Joe's, I found a carton of miso ginger broth and picked it up with no idea whether I would a) enjoy the flavor, or b) have any idea what to do with it. It just looked rather delicious on the picture so I decided to get it and try to use it before it's best by date. The result? A super quick and easy dish perfect as an appetizer for sushi or stir fry or as a stand alone dish.
One cool thing about this dish is that it is entirely meatless but still tastes great and fills me up without that heavy "just ate a pound of steak" feeling. Though, I do enjoy a good steak from time to time. Plus, the broth is delicious on its own and I have a feeling I would enjoy it as a base for a chicken and rice soup or even added to a stir fry.
Ingredients:
1 carton Trader Joe's Miso Ginger Broth
1/2 bunch green onions (4-5), thinly sliced
Handful of mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/2 container organic sea salt seaweed snack, sliced
1/3-1/2 container firm tofu, cubed
Pour broth into a medium pot, add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil then simmer until mushrooms are cooked through. Serve immediately.
Healthy dish.
