Hikari Instant Miso Soup 🥣

Why I love this low calorie snack: One of my favorite low calorie snacks is instant miso soup! Contains 35 calories fried tofu, 30 calories tofu, 25 calories vegetable, and 40 calories eggplant. It tastes so fresh and flavorful, perfect!

Where to buy? I get these delicious instant soups at 99 Ranch Market, Mitsuwa, Tokyo Central, or my local Asian markets.

How I enjoy it: It’s perfect as a snack, after the gym, side dish, and so healthy. I love all of the flavors but my favorite is the vegetable soup. Obsessed and always have them on hand. I make miso soup too but I really like these lol.

Hikari Instant Miso Soup offers a unique convenience that makes it stand out as a go-to snack. The freeze-drying process preserves the vivid flavors and nutrients of ingredients like fried tofu, vegetables, eggplant, and kombu seaweed, giving each serving a fresh, flavorful burst that’s hard to match by ordinary instant soups. One thing I appreciate about these soups is the attention to sodium content. The packaging mentions a 25% reduction in salt compared to traditional miso soups, which is great for anyone mindful of their daily sodium intake but still wanting to enjoy authentic flavors. This is particularly important for those looking for a healthy snack option after workouts or during busy days. Preparing these soups is incredibly easy—just open a sachet, pour hot water, and within minutes you have a warm, comforting bowl. This convenience means you don’t have to compromise on taste or nutrition even when short on time. The inclusion of various flavors like vegetable, fried tofu, and eggplant allows for variety so you won’t get bored. From my experience, enjoying this soup as a side dish with meals or as a light snack between meals helps maintain energy without feeling heavy. Unlike many other snacks that are calorie-dense and loaded with sugars or fats, these miso soups provide satisfying umami and a nutritional boost without extra calories. For those interested in trying them, Asian supermarkets like 99 Ranch Market, Mitsuwa, and Tokyo Central are reliable sources. Online shopping is also an option where available. Overall, Hikari Instant Miso Soup is a delicious, wholesome choice for anyone seeking a low-calorie, nutritious snack that fits a busy lifestyle. Its health benefits combined with authentic flavors make it an excellent pantry staple worth keeping on hand.
