when there is no one to cook for....apparently, i just don't cook! miso soup is a great breakfast, lunch, and dinner-plus it lasts in your fridge for a while!
you will need to go to an asian market to purchase some of these things. you may find them at a regular store-but you will get ripped off.
3 cups of water-bring to boil
whisk 1 tablespoon of dashi (this is a granule. it is fish stock. it sounds gross-but it really gives it great flavor)
take off the heat and whisk in, 1 T at a time, 3 T of miso. i prefer yellow. (this is soybean paste) yellow is mild, red is a bit more bitter, black is much more bitter.
i personally like to add cubed extra firm tofu , mushrooms, and french fried onions.
stir this up good before you serve.
this soup is also excellent to throw in leftover chicken or turkey-and just about any vegetable. i also like to add in japanese noodles. beansprouts, brocolli, mushrooms, carrots, peapods, etc. you can also purchase wakame from an asian store (this is freeze dried seaweed) i personally don't like this-but it is a classic addition to miso soup!

how I eat...
i am a firm believer in eating in moderation. i follow a 4-5 small meal lifestyle. i purchase only free-range meats and dairy, and try to purchase as much organic and local produce as possible. with some time consuming exceptions-i purchase NO processed foods. i feel that i have found a really good balance of spending at the grocery store and still being able to make great healthy meals that dont take hours to prepare.
