Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
8 ounces gourmet mushroom blend, thinly sliced (2 cups)
1 cup thinly sliced red onion (from 1 small)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup super-grain blend or tricolor quinoa
6 cups low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano Cheese, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
1 bunch watercress (3 ounces), trimmed and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a pot over medium-high. When it shimmers, add mushrooms and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden brown in places, 10 to 12 minutes. Add grains and cook, stirring a few times, until toasted and nutty, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add broth; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until grains are just cooked, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in Pecorino and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Serve with watercress, a drizzle of oil, more cheese, and lemon wedges.

This soup is the worst soup I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

I don't recommend this soup. It's not tasty and it's not good for you.

This soup is not worth the effort. It's not that good and it takes too long to make.

This soup is too expensive to make. I can get a better soup at the grocery store for half the price.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
