  1. I love this soup!! I was searching for something to use the carrot greens with due to the amount of carrots I pulled from my garden. I too used the no beef beef broth to keep this vegetarian. I ended up adding extra water/broth to make it more of a broth based soup as the quinoa soaked up the liquid. This really has a fantastic taste and I think a little garlic would be good in it too.
     
  2. Very good! I added 1tsp of basil and I used No-Chicken bouillon. I will add more water next time, the water simmered down a little too low.
     
  3. This is an easy and versatile recipe. I made this a few times with vegan "not beef bouillon" and added about a teaspoon of dried basil and dried dill at the end. very good.
     
  4. Even my 4 year old liked this soup, once she took a bite (any cooked greens always make her fear). The whole family enjoyed it, and it gave me something to do with my carrot tops!
     
  5. this soup is not only great because it works so nice with the carrot tops, but also cause it truly reveals their complex and alluring taste! Not to mention that it is a great way to have your quinoa too!
