Ingredients
-
1.8 oz (50 g)quick-cooking ramen noodles
-
½vegetable bouillon cube
-
2.8 oz (80 g)firm tofu, cut into 1 cm cubes
-
1.9 oz (55 g)button mushrooms, sliced
-
1stalk green onion, thinly sliced
-
½ cup (15 g)fresh spinach
-
1½ cups (360 mL)boiling water
Directions
- Layer your soup ingredients in a mason jar or another heat-proof container. Noodles should go at the bottom, followed by the miso and bouillon cube, then tofu*, green onion, and lastly the mushrooms and spinach. Keep sealed in the fridge until ready to eat.
- When ready to enjoy, carefully pour boiling water into your jar**, plus more if needed to fully submerge all the ingredients. Or transfer the contents into a bowl and pour the water on top to cover.
- Add a cover, let sit for about 3 - 5 minutes or until the noodles are cooked. Garnish and enjoy!
Notes
- * If you have extra time: pan fry the tofu in a tsp of coconut oil to crisp up the sides.
- ** Mason jars can get very hot, so be sure to handle them with care. If the glass jar is cold, add a small splash of hot water to the jar first and swirl around before adding the rest.
Storage
- Best if enjoyed right away after adding the boiling water.
- The prepped soup can be stored in the fridge for up to two days, so long as no water has been added.

So easy and so good! I used smoked tofu for a little extra flavor. Will definitely make again!
Great taste, just noodle stayed a bit too raw for my liking even after 5 min resting.
This is the first miso soup that I've tried and actually really liked (including restaurant miso soups). Tasty, easy and satisfying.
Love this recipe. I keep making it over and over, and all the friends that I've made it for really like it too.
I've made it with frozen mushrooms and/or spinach when I didn't have fresh options and it turned out equally good. I do cook the mushrooms a bit first and add the rest of the ingredients afterwards since they otherwise and up too raw for my taste. Aside from that, this recipe is perfect – nourishing, filling, light, hydrating, tasty, easy, quick and with just a few ingredients. Thank you!
This was really nice and easy! The only thing I changed was I added an extra half a cup of water as I found it a little strong. But that's just personal taste. Apart from that, it's great!
It's named to-go, but it's really my go to quick soup!
SO good! I ended up making it on the stove since hot water wasn’t enough to cook my noodles (I used rice noodles instead of ramen). So flavourful and easy! Will definitely be making again (probably tomorrow).
Estoy ESTA muy bueno ,lo hice para llevar Al trabajo
Super delicious, quick, and easy. I added some shiitake mushrooms as well for a little extra depth of flavor. Sadia and team are constantly knocking it out of the park with the quick meals. I don’t ever feel like I’m sacrificing flavor or nutrition, even on a busy day! Thank you PUL!
I had to change the vegetables and mushrooms because i was in a rush but this came out amazing!! It shows that it actually goes well with everything.
So easy and so good!
Excellent équilibre entre la soupe miso et les ramen. Super bon, léger et très hydratant, à faire pour les moments flemes, les moments réconfortants, et les moments où l'on veut se régaler tout en mangeant léger. Parfait pour les lendemains de fêtes aussi
I love the taste! But the mushrooms were a bit raw :(
I think next time, I might give them a few minutes in the pan before assembling my meal! Also, I used silken tofu, and it was amazing!
Delicious and so easy. I made several for my office lunch.
What type of miso paste did you use? Is white best for this? ☺️
Beautiful, comforting and nutritious dish! It was too salty for my taste, so I would cut on the miso / bouillon. I also craved a bit of spicy and sweet, so added some chili powder and a bit of coconut aminos. I also slightly baked the tofu and thoroughly cooked the mushrooms since I don’t like them ‘raw’. I also added a bit of thyme and some leftover cannellini beans. Will continue refining the dish to my sweet spot, but it will be a staple for sure :)
What bouliion cubes do you use please? I have better than bouillon vegan in a jar. Wondering what the substitution could be? Thank you
I actually like it, when it is cooked all together for about 5 min like a one pot ramen. It tales only a few minutes longer
Toasted super firm tofu, garlic powder and added a healthy dose of sriracha - it was perfect!
I made this recipe maybe a thousand times already and it never gets old! So many flavors and ready in 15 minutes - thanks so much for this recipe, team 💛
I tried it also with frozen veggie gyozas and edamame - very very tasty!
Amazing flavor and super easy to make! Highly recommend!
Really easy to do and tasts very yummi 😍👌
Valeur sûre pour s'hydrater et faire le plein de nutriments
sooo good!! definitely recommend browning the tofu (I also coated them in a little corn starch but that's not necessary)
Just perfect!
Very quick, easy and tasty:)
Super easy and tasty. Great for a quick lunch.
Heaven
Easy, simple and quick soup!
My miso paste was too strong so I watered it down to make it taste better. Next time I'll try with half of the miso paste
I loved it ! I wonder why I didn’t try it sooner ! So easy to put together on busy weekdays sand so delish !
This one is brilliant. So easy and the miso paste s such a brîlliant addition
So simple! Such a speedy meal and tasty!
Hi ! I just made this for dinner, it's delicious and a very satisfying quick meal. Thank you !
My oldest daughter loves to meal prep and I make theses alot during winter too
This recipe is perfect for her to take to work
Hey hey ;))
It really looks delicious, nutritious, and i wanna make it tomorrow, so a question - What do you think i could add instead of tofu and mushrooms ?
Just did big shopping for 50e and still dont have them, dont wanna go grocery again ;(
Love this soup, I make it all the time. And tonight it's helping me feel better as I fight COVID. Thank you!
Made this today. Super delicious. This recipe will be in meal rotation. Thank you PUL
Tastes great. My noodles weren’t done in 3 minutes though.
Oh my word!
This is the best! Packed with nutritional goodness and a flavour punch that definitely hit the spot on a cold winter's night - I may just call this my new favourite
Delicious recipe!!! So yum ❤️🩷
So good. I did this for dinner, added some homemade kale chips (to add a seaweed type topping) and was delish! I also added some cabbage since I didn’t do the to-go version. By far the best miso I’ve ever had.
Agh, this is soooo delicious! I did swap the miso paste for miso soup as that’s what I had on hand. This is so easy to do and I’ll definitely make it again.
I was wondering where you buy your miso paste in the Netherland? Is it always that expensive? Or do I just go to the wrong stores?😂 I’ve been using a mix of soy sauce and tahin, which worked fine but I’m eager to try it with miso paste.
Simple, tasty and so quick to make! I added some zucchini and pak choy and it was delicious. Definitely adding this to my regular rotation of recipes, thank you Pick Up Limes Team!
Super quick and simple, yet very delicious.
What size mason jar? A normal standard size or a large one?
Super easy, satisfying. Take the time to crisp up the tofu, you’ll love the texture. I substituted broccoli “bites” (same size pieces as tofu) for spinach. Love this portable recipe 😊
Delicious, easy and quick. Everything I love ☺️ it doesn’t compare to a ramen from a ramen’s bar but with a few ingredients the result is stunning
Super simple super yummm
It’s a week night staple so easy and satisfying! Thank you for creating nourishing dishes that don’t require much time or effort! I always feel like I’m eating good for my body when I make your recipes ❤️
This is on my short list of go to lunches. It’s always great with my hectic schedule.
Hi Sadia . Love your To Go Miso recipe. It was so easy to make but so yum.. I added a full bullion cube and less of the miso paste , as I can get only red miso here in NZ… I definitely shared it my daughter who’s has a busy life… it such a great idea… please share more quick on the go rice… definitely my to go recipe too… love ur sweet smiles and mistakes too… God bless … love to meet u one day ….
Great lunch to take to work.
I like this recipe, especially for taking along to work. I usually add instead of the bullion cube, 1 teaspoon of Bonito powder (available at an Asian Supermarket), because I like the fishy taste.
I’m interested in your plates and bowls. Will you share links pls?
Best soup ever! Very quick, easy, and very comforting.
I love trying your recipes but this one confused me a little bit. How can we boil mushrooms only in 5 minutes?
This is such an easy, filling soup! I have made it twice in as many days. It's definitely staying on my winter soup rotation.
I'm currently spending time at Japan and I was saved by this simple recipe. I only have a small fridge and a water cooker on my personal use. I used the common kitchen to chop all the incridients and had a simple food to eat at my room <3. Thank you!
I'll share my thoughts while my soup is still too hot to enjoy. Since I wasn't pressed for time, I decided to "upgrade" it a bit. I fried the tofu (as suggested) but I also added some onion, garlic and ginger (I'll add even more next time) and fried them (together with mushrooms) before adding the rest of the ingredients. It is really tasty, and most importantly super easy to make. I will surely be making this again :) (Even with the extra steps it still took me less than 30 mins.) Thank, Sadia!
I admit it!! I postponed on making this dish because I thought it would be just salty soup.. but I'm so happy I finally tried it!! It is super tasty!! Great for a late night snack too!
I also have a question, what type of miso do you use?
I use shiro miso and I was wondering if different miso pastes create a great difference in flavour?
ALERT!!! MUST TRY THE RECIPE! Not only easy but super tasty.
The recipe was really amazing. As it told I did within 10 minutes as I was damn hungry. Saved my pocket money especially. Coz in hunger, I might order n eat which would hole my pocket. So thank you for saving my pocket and soothing my empty stomach. Hehe. Thank you, Guys.
Easy to make, flavorful and healthy. Great recipe! Thank you!
This was surprisingly good! I haven't had much success with homemade miso recipes, for whatever reason they always seem to lack flavor. But this recipe was not only really easy and quick to put together, and mostly consisted of ingredients I already had-- it also was super flavorful! And required almost no cleanup. I can definitely see myself making this again. Thanks for the great recipe.
This was so easy!! Really great for a lazy day. I added extra veggies to mine :)
Absolutely delicious! Thank you so much! :D
Lovely recipe! Thank you!
Hi Sadia,
I only have the white miso paste not the red one. Does this recipe still work ?
Thanks!
Amazing! I felt like eating at a restaurant!
I was really surprised when I tried it the other day because it was so easy ! Such a lovely dinner idea.
Oh sadia, you saved me!! I ate it almost everyday last week and I loooooove it! It's so simple and so delicious! I'm a bit addicted and can't get enough of it! It's very cold when I'm working and I can't bring anything to heat it up and that is a great solution! I would love it if there was a few variations with this kind of soup making!
My husband and I love this dish! It is simply delicious and so easy to make!
It was delicious!! Love it. I addna few drops of lemon and it was amazing!
Very easy, delicious and nourishing!
Super quick and easy to make and delicious as well!
This has been a go-to lunch option since I found out about it! SO GOOD!!!
Was a super quick meal! Really nice to have such a delicious quick option. I couldn't find miso paste to buy so used soya sauce instead which worked out fine. Definitely going to make this again!
Honestly, this was much better than thought it would be. I thought it wouldn’t have much flavour but it does, though mild. It’s very comforting and super quick and easy to make!
Our family loves making your dishes, especially this one!
Thank you for sharing your recipes and positivity!
We will be making this soon. I know it will be delicious and love that added spinach! And yes to Sriracha! Thank you!
Awesome recipe! A big hit in our house. Thank you.
Amazing, quick recipe - has become a staple in our house since we first tried it! I usually add some coconut milk to it to make it creamier - makes for the perfect pick-me-up warm liquid hug <3
This recipe is soo good. I didnt’t rake long and the results were amazing. I didnt have mushrooms so I used zucchini instead! It still tasted great. Thanks so much pick up limes:)
Miso soup is the best! It’s just the thing for a cold or when you have the flu and preparing it like this makes it a cinch to prepare!
I tried this one out, because Ramen is my absolute favorite meal, and this is such a good recipe. It can be made during the week, even when work is busy, because it doesn't cost too much time. You're the best Sadia!
Do you think you can more Ramen recipes in the future? I already tried out lot's of combinations (with peanut butter, Pak Choi, with soy milk etc.) but I would love to hear your thoughts on it :) I have the feeling, Asian recipes offers many options for vegans.
Best Wishes, Marc :)
Miam! This was so tasty! I love this thick Asian soups!
I just wanted to tell you that I in no way consider myself plant based or vegan, just a girl trying to live a healthier life and leave the world a little better, but i have eaten this everyday for lunch this week ! it is amazing and so delish! I use forbidden rice noodles, soooo good. And thank you for introducing me to Samabal Oelek, where was this sauce of the gods my whole life! A huge hug and thank you from little 'ol Tri Cities, WA :) Have a nourished day!
This was so simple and fast to make - thank you very much for this recipe. I added some wakame, which also tasted wonderful.
Plus, I love your new design, super fun to scroll through the page and recipes! :-)
Kind regards from Austria!
This was so easy and delicious! Definitely something I will make regularly :))
The soup looks beautiful and yummy! Love the new site, great job!
A quick question: Is the sodium/serving really 2670 mg? :O Feels like an error... Just wanted to give a heads up in case it was.
Thank you!
