Quick and simple dinner

As a college student, inexpensive and decent food is what matters. Usually, that would be found in a fast food restaurant.  However, you can always make something healthy, quick, and nice right at home. 

Instant Miso Soup

There are 8 servings in this $4.00 packet- good deal

Each makes a small bowl of miso

 The directions says to put: 1 packet of paste, 1 packet of miso ingredients, and 2-3 cups of water

I decided to make 2 servings, so I can save some for tomorrow's dinner

In this pot, I have 2 packets of paste, 2 packets of miso ingredients, and 5 cups of water

Then I heated up the miso to a boil

 I chopped some healthy vegetables for my broth

-Asian Bok Choy, mushrooms, tofu, diced garlic, green onions

 I placed all the vegetables in the soup and added some pepper (no salt or oyster sauce because I am trying to stay away from high sodium). I never know how to season food, but I know pepper always works!

Then, I added a packet of frozen udon noodles

Finally, I waited until the broth was boiling

 This is my most Asian dish ever

Like my housemate Cynthia would say: "Sriracha makes everything taste good". I liked how the sriracha added a little kick of spice

I'm happy that I finally ate something healthy. The weather is starting to get really cold and coming home to a bowl of soup feels so nice. I really enjoyed this flavorful vegetable udon soup!
