Dinner at Home
Since Giao still wasn't feeling well, Alexis made a big pot of vegetable quinoa soup with a bit of egg for protein.
Hearty Vegetable Quinoa Soup
Inspired by both Alexis' little sister, who loves quinoa, and our travels to Peru, in which quinoa is a primary ingredient in many soups, Alexis decided to make a hearty winter soup with this protein packed grain.
