Posted in Happy Meals, Kids

Ingredients
•½ package tofu of any type (silken is better)
•2 tbsp miso paste*
•4 cups water
•¼ cup corn kernels
•¼ cup green beans, cut into ¼” pieces
•1 tbsp cilantro leaves
Preparation
1.In a saucepan over medium‐high heat, bring the water and miso paste to a boil. Add corn, tofu, and green beans, (or any vegetables you like) and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with cilantro leaves (or seedweed).
2. Miso paste varies in its taste. Some may be very salty and some may be sweet. If your miso paste is very salty, use less than 2 tbsp. Miso, known as bean paste, is a staple in Japanese cooking. This soup is actually served with rice, salad, and other items every morning in Japan (when I was young!)
