Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the carrots and garlic and continue to sauté until all are golden, about 5 minutes.
- Add 6 cups water, followed by the bouillon cubes, tomatoes, quinoa, beans, curry powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to a rapid simmer, then cover and simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes, until the quinoa is tender.
- Add the spinach and cover. Cook for just a minute or two, until it is wilted, then stir it into the soup. Adjust the consistency with a little more water if the soup is too dense; season with salt and pepper and serve.
- menu suggestions
- For a delicious soup-and-salad meal, pair this with Mixed Greens with Sprouts, Apple, and Daikon (page 179) and serve with fresh whole-grain olive bread or a fresh flatbread such as pita or lavash.
- To complete the meal without using further recipes, serve with vegan cheese quesadillas (use a griddle on the stovetop or bake in a 400°F oven) or simple nachos (tortilla chips topped with melted vegan cheese and, if you'd like, some green chiles), and a salad of mixed greens, tomatoes, peppers, and olives.
