Ingredients
  

  • 1 onion diced
  • 2 celery ribs diced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 4oz cans diced green chilies
  • 2 cans white beans, like cannellini or great northern drained and rinsed
  • 1 can gabanzo beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 can organic corn drained and rinsed
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 3 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ cup quinoa
  • 1 lime

Instructions
 

  • Begin by heating up a large stock pan then add a little oil.
  • Saute onion with a pinch of salt for a few minutes, until soft. Add celery and garlic, salt again. Cook until soft.
  • Add all the seasoning, with another good pinch of salt, and coat veggies. Add green chilies, beans, corn, quinoa, and broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and cook for about 30 minutes. Stir after about 20 minutes, but try to keep covered for all the other time. Around the 20 minute mark I also like to take a potato masher and give it a couple mashes to thicken up the soup.
  • Stir in the juice of 1 lime at the end. Adjust for salt and pepper if needed
  • Serve a big bowl with a dollop of yogurt, some avocado, hot sauce and fresh cilantro. Totally optional but so good!
