When I was little and I got sick, my mom would always make me noodle soup. This recipe gives me that same comforting feeling, and I like to keep it in rotation for rainy nights and sick days.
4
servings of soba or brown rice noodles, uncooked
3 cups
vegetable broth
3 cups
water
1 cup
julienned carrot
1 cup
julienned zucchini
1 cup
thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms
1 cup
broccoli florets
3 Tbsp
miso paste
1
(14-ounce) package firm tofu, cut into 1-inch cubes
¼ cup
chopped green onions
1
sheet roasted nori seaweed, broken into pieces

Instructions
1. Prepare the noodles according to the instructions on the package. Set them aside.
2. In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring the vegetable broth and water to a boil. Add the carrot, zucchini, mushrooms, and broccoli, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes.
3. Use a ladle to transfer 1 cup of broth to a small bowl. Use a fork to dissolve the miso paste into the broth, then return it to the pot. Add the tofu, green onions, and cooked noodles, then simmer for 1 more minute, until everything is warm.
4. Transfer to bowls and top with the nori seaweed.
