Minestrone has always been one of my favorite soups; it's light enough to not leave you feeling weighed down, yet hearty and warming enough to take away the chill of cold weather. I know you'll love this recipe as much as I do!
This is a light and inexpensive meal for anytime, but it's particularly good for busy weeknights, since it comes together in a snap. I use quinoa for its nutritional punch, but feel free to use another quick cooking gluten free grain such as amaranth or millet.
