I convinced my parents to let me make us dinner tonighhhhhhht gonna make some tofu and seaweed soup that’s only like 75 cals per servinggggg woooo!!
It’s kinda a nice recipe so I’ll post it here (read to the bottom for an easier kinda scuffed seaweed soup that I made for myself for lunch today since I was feeling sick, only 30-40 cals depending on what you add)
Serves 2
-8 grams dried seaweed
-1 1/2 cup vegetable stock
-2 1/2 cup water
-150 g silken tofu
-1 tsp vegan fish sauce (or light soy sauce)
-1 tsp sesame oil
-1/8 tsp ground white pepper
-1 sprig green onion/ scallion
-1/2 tsp white sesame seeds
Heat stock and water on high heat, cut seaweed and put it in the pot, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Add sliced (bite sized) tofu and seasonings, bring to a boil, and serve with onions and sesame seeds as garnish!
My scuffed seaweed soup for one, 30-40 cals:
Chicken bouillon (like 1-2 tsp)
Hot water (1.5-2 cups?)
Dried minced onions (as much as you want ig)
A lil cumin
A lil cayenne
A very smol dash of soy sauce
1 pack of seaweed snacks
Just tear up the seaweed and mix it up. I am very precise XD it’s very salty and a lil spicy, but I like it. Took me a while to eat since it was very hot, and filled me up and settled my stomach well. You could definitely add more water to make it last longer/ to water down the saltiness if you wanted!
