Instructions

Starting with the miso, ginger, garlic, and hot pepper, and ending with the veggies and tofu, layer everything into a large (2 cup capacity or more) heat-proof jar, except for the lime and soy sauce,
1-2 teaspoon miso paste, ½ clove garlic, 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger, ½ medium carrot, ½ cup napa cabbage, ½ green onion, ¼ hot red pepper, ⅛ red bell pepper, ¼ cup tofu
At this point, you can simply add the lid and stash your soup jars in the fridge.
When you're ready for soup, boil the kettle. Fill the jar to the top with boiling water and replace the lid.
Wait 10 minutes, then remove the lid and give the soup a good stir.
Season with soy sauce and a squeeze of lime juice, and serve.

Notes

Nutrition values are an estimate only.
Note! I have included ingredients for one jar of miso veggie soup. If you'd like to meal prep several jars, toggle the number of servings to your desired quantity, and it will adjust the ingredients for you.
You can mix up the vegetables depending on what you like and what's in season, just make sure they're finely diced, sliced, or shredded.
Prepared soup jars will last about 3 days kept sealed in the fridge.
No kettle? Add the water and microwave the soup for 2 minutes until hot.
