Recipe: Mixed Vegee Miso

Summary: There are only a few foods I get cravings for….chocolate, deep fried spring rolls, kung pao tofu….and miso soup. Especially if I’m feeling run down – Miso soup does an amazing job of nourishing me and it always tastes good. I like this recipe because it has alot of value-added vegees not just the traditional broth with seaweed and a few squares of tofu.

    1/2 c. thinly slice zucchini
    1 small leek, cleaned and thinly sliced
    handful of dried rice noodles, broken into small pieces
    1/4 c. small cubes of tofu
    2 t. chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Heat ghee, saute ginger 3 mintues
  2. Stir in everything else (except noodles if you add them)
  3. Bring to a boil, Simmer 10 minutes
