    Vegetable-miso soup with edamama, napa cabbage and buckwheat soba. The perfect solution to winter blahs!

    This looks absolutely amazing. Makes me wish I didnt just make a big pot of boring tomato soup! Do you mind sharing the recipe?

    I didn't really follow a "recipe", I mostly just threw together things that sounded delicious! It went something like this:

    - Boil 2 cups of water (enough to fill your soup bowl) and dissolve 1-2 teaspoons of vegetarian boullion.
    - Add 2 ounces of buckwheat soba noodles, 1/2 cup frozen edamame, 1/2 a medium onion, a tablespoon of soy sauce, a sprinkling of rice vinegar, garlic and sliced fresh ginger. Cook until noodles are pretty soft.
    - Add shredded napa cabbage (as much or as little as you like...I happen to love cabbage, so I threw a ton in there!). Cook until cabbage is wilted.
    - Reduce soup to a simmer and add 1-2 tablespoons of mellow white miso (careful, boiling it will alter the flavor). Stir to dissolve and serve!

    Delicious lunch today - a completely vegan chaat, a Pakistani street food chock full of chickpeas, boiled potatoes, fruits, crunchy bits and lots of different chutneys and spices. So delicious, I am definitely hooked!

    "But where do you get your protein?" Right here, ladies and gents.

    Stir fry with broccoli, red pepper, string beans and seitan atop cooked quinoa.

    I'm not sure where you'd purchase seitan in the UK, but I live in the US and don't purchase it, I prefer to make it at home because it's easy, cheap and I control what goes into it.

    I buy Vital Wheat Gluten flour from amazon.com and mix 2 cups of the gluten with two cups of water, some garlic and onion powder and dried thyme. I simmer (AND I MEAN SIMMER) it for about an hour in 6 cups of vegetable stock and soy sauce, then slice and freeze.
