Directions
Chinese Hot and Sour Soup Lite, This recipe helped me with my diet and also helped me to stretch my dollar through the lean college years. It’s an adaptation from another recipe for vegetarians and those pursuing a healthier lifestyle., Yum! This came together easily and tastes great. Like the reviewer below I did not add in the egg yet as I expect I will be freezing some of this (the tofu pieces are likely to be enough for my husband not to try this). The ‘hot’ and ‘sour’ are in perfect proportions. EDIT – it is even better the next day!
