paprika

Sliced sweet red & green pepper

Sliced purple cabbage

1/4 block diced firm tofu 

5 or 6 Saffron threads

1 Tbs Tamari 

Boil above for a few minutes

Turn off heat, add 1 heaping

Tbs Organic Brown Rice Miso

or White Miso ( never boil miso

it damages the beneficial enzymes

1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil

Top with green onions & chives
sesame seeds, etc.                          
A VEGAN FRIENDLY MEAL     

A good organic miso is a bit of an investment around $5 
but it lasts forever in the fridge, the brown rice miso tastes meaty, 
the white is a little sweeter. 
There are other types too you can try. 

I understand some Asian people just heat water and stir in 
Miso instead of coffee for breakfast, healthy rich and full of
vitamins and minerals. 

You can add it to sauces too.
