This soup starts with a simple miso broth that's loaded with goodness. The puffy quinoa is cooked until al dente, ensuring that it adds texture, while the fresh vegetables are cooked until tender. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice completes the meal by adding a zing of tangy flavor into the mix. Serve this soup as a light lunch or dinner, paired with your favorite sandwich.
