(Use organic ingredients whenever possible).
This soup is filled with feel-good ingredients like lean chicken, whole-grain quinoa, and hearty pinto beans. Simple, yet satisfying, this soup is very high in fiber and provides complex carbohydrates and protein, along with nutrients like iron, magnesium, and folate.
In a medium sized pot add oil and onions and cook until onions are opaque.
Add water and the rest of the ingredients.
Cook for approx. 1 to 1.5 hours. (Using presoaked pinto beans will reduce cooking time).
Garnish with shredded carrots, diced spinach or red bell peppers.
