Black Bean Quinoa Soup

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Very good and healthy soup! The only change that I made was adding 2 or 3 more carrots, giving it a bit more color. Very tasty and even better on day two! 9/23/2017: I've made this recipe many times and must add that it freezes very nicely :) I make it often. It's OK to omit the spinach (or use fresh spinach is good), and use one can of black beans with one can of kidney beans.

    Black Bean Quinoa Soup, This was adapted from a recipe on drfuhrman com I simplified the instructions to make it easier to prepare For each can of low sodium broth, I substitute 2 cups water, 1 tablespoon VegiZest (from drfuhrman com) and 1/8 teaspoon salt (optional) You can reduce prep time by using frozen pre-chopped vegetables and jarred garlic , Very good and healthy soup!
