This quick miso soup recipe combines the rich flavors of white miso paste, chicken bone broth, and tender tofu, topped with the freshness of green onions. In just 5 minutes, you'll have a satisfying and nourishing bowl of miso soup ready to enjoy. Adjust the saltiness to your liking and savor the comforting taste of this speedy soup.

High-Protein Miso Soup
  • 2 cups chicken bone broth (I love Costco Bone Broth)
  • 1-2 tablespoon white miso paste
  • 1/4 cup diced tofu or chicekn
  • 1 sheet of nori (optional)
Instructions
  1. Pour the chicken bone broth into a microwave-safe container.

  2. Add 1-2 tablespoons of white miso paste to the broth (adjust to your preferred level of saltiness) and stir until the miso is fully dissolved.

  3. Add the diced tofu or chicken to the broth.

  4. Place the container in the microwave and heat on high for about 2-3 minutes, or until the soup is heated to your desired temperature.

  5. Carefully remove from the microwave (use an oven mitt if needed) and give it a gentle stir.

  6. If using, stir in most of the thinly sliced green onions, reserving some for garnish. If using nori, add it at this point as well.

  7. Let it cool slightly before enjoying your quick and nutritious miso soup.

Note

For an extra layer of texture and nutrition, consider adding already prepared frozen cauliflower stir-fry to your Tofu Miso Soup. The cauliflower brings a delightful crunch and a boost of fiber to the mix, making your meal even more satisfying and diabetes-friendly. Simply toss in a cup of frozen cauliflower stir-fry when you're heating the soup for added convenience. I love my already-prepared Cauliflower Stir-Fry from Costco.
