ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup onion, diced
1 cup carrot, diced
¹⁄₂ cup celery, diced
1 cup red pepper, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups green cabbage, diced
¹⁄₂ cup quinoa (regular or whole wheat)
1 cup tomatoes, diced
10 cups vegetable broth
¹⁄₃ cup fresh basil, chopped
salt and pepper

directions

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. When oil is hot, add onion, carrots, celery, red pepper, garlic cloves and cabbage. Stir to coat and saute for about 2-3 minutes, until veggies are softened but not browned.
Add quinoa and stir until mixed in with the vegetables. Saute for another 2 minutes.
Add tomatoes and broth and simmer on low-medium heat for about 20-30 minutes or until veggies are cooked to your liking. The longer you cook it, the more the quinoa will naturally thicken the soup.
When soup is done, stir in fresh basil and add salt and pepper to taste.

Nice, easy soup. The quinoa is a nice touch - filling and works well with the variety of veggies. Thanks for sharing!

This soup is fresh and colourful with a great veggie taste. YUM! However I felt it lacked some oomph, maybe one could up the basil, add some acidity and more garlic... I made half the recipe using only 2.5. cups broth as we like our soup on the thick side. l will make this soup again, but with added seasoning.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your creation with us and good luck in the contest!<br/>Made and reviewed for Craze-E Fall 2011.

I really enjoyed this soup. It was warm and comforting the day I made it, and it was so enjoyable. I also found this soup to be easily doubled, and it refrigerates very well.
