Almost-Instant, Low-Carb, High-Protein Hot & Sour Soup

Soup Queen's Note:

This is a great quick snack I devised to help me achieve my weight loss goal on the Lean For Life program. It is probably also compatible with South Beach, Atkins and many other eating plans.

Mmm, mmm, good! Used brown rice miso, doubled the bonito flakes, and subbed the tofu (I was out) with small cooked pasta stars. Also, since I didn't have any chilli-garlic sauce, I added 1 garlic clove and a few dashes of Tabasco sauce. Thank you Soup Queen for a new instant favourite!!!!
