CROCKPOT QUINOA, CHICKEN, AND KALE SOUP
Delicious and nutritious! Found this on Pinterest, edited for my preferences. Quinoa makes it hearty and filling. The chicken was soooo tender, it just fell apart! I never used kale before but couldn't really taste it in this- I don't like cooked spinach in soup but I did like the kale! Could be topped with shredded parmesan cheese. Also, I like to freeze some of the leftovers in serving size ziploc bags.

s.h@aol.comNot bad! I'm not a huge fan of kale, but this soup was still pretty good. The chicken was tender and the broth was flavorful. I might try it again with spinach instead of kale.
