I’ve been making this a lot for lunch because it’s quick and it’s an easy way to get a lot of protein and veg into my day.
Start by boiling a pot of water – about as much as you would have for a bowl of soup.
In a small bowl mix together 2tbsp miso paste, 15g powdered peanut butter, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp soy sauce and a squirt of sriracha. Maybe half a tsp of ginger powder?
Once the water is boiling, take a couple spoonfuls of the hot water and mix it into your flavouring paste and mix until smooth.
To the boiling water, add your favourite veggies. I like to use Green Giant’s Asian Blend because it’s got broccoli, red peppers, barley, black beans and edamame. I also put in some frozen kale, squash and peas.
I let this boil for a couple of minutes, then take it off the heat. Then mix in the flavouring paste (don’t add miso to boiling water).
Finally, stir in a 1/3 cup of egg whites. They should thicken the soup a tiny bit, and you won’t even notice them.
I like to garnish this with seaweed sprinkles, chili flakes, sesame seeds and green onions.
It’s about 300-350 calories and 28g protein, for those who count. I’m thinking about trying it with some edamame noodles to boost the protein and make it more filling.
