Quinoa may be an unconventional ingredient, but it adds protein in this vegan tortilla soup, making it hearty enough for a main dish. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
8 cups vegetable broth
1 cup quinoa, rinsed
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 cup fresh or frozen corn
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro
Optional ingredients: Cubed avocado, lime wedges and additional chopped cilantro

Directions

Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper; cook and stir until tender, 3-5 minutes. Add broth, quinoa, and seasonings. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, until quinoa is tender, about 10 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes, corn and cilantro; heat through. Serve with optional ingredients as desired.

Peppers (Hot)

Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
