Soup season is here!
This is a new recipe my daughter and I have been tweaking. Vegan, DELICIOUS, and high in protein, thank you quinoa. And the best part is it’s sooo EASY! Pretty much perfect. Enjoy!
QUINOA VEGETABLE SOUP
* 1 onion chopped
* 6-8 celery ribs chopped
* 3-4 large carrots chopped
*2-3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or 1/4 cup broth if you’re avoiding oil)
* 15 ounce can stewed or diced tomatoes
* 15 ounce can tomato sauce or use more broth, if you want a thinner soup
* 1 quart vegetable broth
* 1 cup dry quinoa, rinsed well
1. Sauté onions, celery, and carrots in the olive oil for 5 minutes.
2. Add diced or stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and vegetable broth. Stir.
3. Add quinoa and bring soup to a low boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
4. Drizzle each serving with with a little extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with a little garlic salt.
(If you’re feeling daring try a sprinkle of cayenne pepper.)
ENJOY!
