Quinoa Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat; cook and stir onion, garlic, carrot, and celery until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Add parsley, basil, bay leaf, thyme, chicken broth, and tomatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until heated through, 10 minutes.
• Stir cabbage, kidney beans, and quinoa into the soup. Cover and simmer until quinoa is tender, 30 minutes. Garnish each serving with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Heat butter in pot over medium heat; cook and stir onion, sweet potato, red bell pepper, celery, zucchini, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the melted butter until vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes.
• Stir vegetable stock, quinoa, cumin, oregano, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into vegetable mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover pot, and simmer soup until quinoa is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir peanut butter into soup and simmer until flavors have blended, about 20 more minutes.

Steps:

Partially cover and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until the quinoa starts to soften, about 12 minutes.
