In 4-quart saucepan over high heat, heat 8 cups water to boiling
Add
soup mix, noodles, carrot, red pepper, lemon peel, crushed red pepper, and
tofu mixture; heat to boiling
Reduce heat to low; simmer soup 8 to 10
minutes until noodles are cooked (if using linguine, cooking time will be
slightly longer) and vegetables are tender
Stir in watercress until it
wilts
Serve immediately because noodles will absorb liquid quickly

markets or in some supermarkets
If miso soup mix is unavailable, you can
substitute 2 extra large vegetable bouillon cubes
