One Pot Miso Soup

1teaspoon olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 cup carrots or cabbage, thinly sliced
2 cups vegetable broth
1 to 2 tablespoons Miso
Optional:  1/4 cube tofu, diced, and/or 1 Tablespoon nut butter

           In a medium saucepan sauté onions in oil until they become translucent.  Add vegetables and sauté until tender.  Add broth and optional ingredients.  Cover and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.  Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of Miso (to your taste) and dissolve.  Simmer 5 to 10 minutes.  Serves 2.

TIM"S NOTES:  I like this recipe because a lot of the ingredients can be kept on hand, and it goes together in a matter of 15-20 minutes.  Perfect for a cold winter day.  I have a feeling you could add whatever vegetables you have on hand, and use chicken or beef broth if that's all you had.  I have been eating it with cabbage.  I don't know what kind of nut butter you are supposed to use, but I am guessing whatever you have on hand.  I hadn't been eating it with the nut butter, but thought I would add a little peanut butter.  This makes it SUBLIME!
