Quinoa Soup is a comforting healthy soup made by pressure cooking a blend of quinoa, spices & basic veggies. Quinoa Soup is relished with bread stick& pepper powder as an appetizer and fairly easy to make.
Quinoa Soup tastes great on its own but to call it a meal we had it with homemade wheat bread and it was so filling. Quinoa is rich in protein and fibre and with loaded vegetables this soup is filling for breakfast.
