QUINOA SOUP WITH AVOCADO AND CORN
Most people know they should be eating more whole grains. Most people don't have the time to. Whole grains may taste better and be healthier for you than refined grains, but they also generally take much longer to cook. This easy, flavorful soup uses quinoa (prounced KEEN - wah), which is available alongside rice at most grocers and natural foods stores. Canned black beans or chopped cooked chicken are excellent additions to this soup.

[email protected]This is one of my favorite quinoa recipes. It's so simple to make and always turns out great. The avocado and corn add a nice creamy texture and sweetness. I usually serve it with a side of whole-wheat bread or crackers.

[email protected]This soup is a great way to use up leftover quinoa. It's also really versatile - you can add different vegetables, beans, or spices to change up the flavor. I like to make a big batch and freeze it in individual portions for quick and easy meals.

[email protected]Not bad, but I've had better. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some more spices and maybe some roasted vegetables.
