  • 15-Minute Miso Soup with Greens and Tofu. The combination of cold weather and stress can take a toll on the immune system. My remedy for this situation is this 15-minute miso soup.
  • Japanese Hamburg Steak. Hamburg steak is sort of like a version of Japanese meatloaf. You form one inch patties out of ground beef and tofu, then fry and steam.
