- * 2 teaspoons olive oil shopping list
- * 2 small carrots, cut into slices shopping list
- * 2 medium green onions, thinly sliced shopping list

- * 1 medium red potato, unpeeled and diced shopping list
- * 1 cup shredded red or green cabbage shopping list
- * 2 medium ribs of celery, diced shopping list
- * 1/4 cup sliced radishes shopping list
- * 1 teaspoon dried oregano shopping list
- * 1/4 teaspoon of salt shopping list
- * 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes shopping list
- * 2 tablespoons snipped fresh parsley shopping list
How to make it
- (Authors’ note: I actually left out the radishes and red pepper flakes, as I desired a more mild soup. I compensated by adding two extra cloves of garlic. I say spice to your taste!)
- 1) In a medium saucepan, dry-roast the quinoa over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly golden brown, stirring occasionally (some of the grains may pop slightly). Transfer to a plate.
- 2) In the same pan, heat the oil over medium heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the carrots, green onions and garlic for 3-4 minutes, or until the carrots are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
- 3) Stir in the broth. Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a light boil, stirring occasionally.
- 4) Stir in the remaining ingredients except the parsley. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 10 minutes, or until the potato is tender when pierced with a fork or sharp knife.
- 5) Stir in the quinoa. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender. Garnish with parsley.
