Miso Vegetable Soup.

Yesterday, while wandering down the aisles I saw this. I have a fondness for Sushi and Miso Soup. There is something nourishing, exotic and intriguing about Miso... I surfed the Internet and there wasn't a recipe that I thought used ingredients I had so............

Sometimes recipes come from necessity and using what's in your fridge!
