Vibrant African Quinoa Soup with Roasted Veggies
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 sweet potato, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 2 zucchini, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 cups vegetable stock
  • 1/2 cup quinoa
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
Instructions
1
Heat a generous amount of butter in a large cooking vessel over a moderate temperature; cook and stir the onion, sweet potato, red bell pepper, celery, zucchini, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the melted butter until the vegetables have become tender and soft, approximately 10 minutes.
2
Combine the vegetable stock, quinoa, cumin, oregano, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into the vegetable mixture; bring the entire blend to a rolling boil. Lower the heat, cover the cooking vessel, and allow the soup to simmer gently until the quinoa is tender and fully cooked, typically taking 10 to 15 minutes.
3
Stir a small amount of peanut butter into the soup and continue to simmer until all the flavors have melded together in harmony, approximately 20 additional minutes.
