Quinoa, greens and tomato soup
Overview
This magical thing, quinoa, has been introduced to you several times before. It is deeply loved by cannabis. Quinoa is probably the most popular staple food in healthy eating circles, pregnancy circles, and complementary food circles. As a plant, quinoa contains complete protein that is only found in the animal kingdom, which is very rare. The average protein content in quinoa is 16% (up to 22%). Quinoa contains a balanced balance of all 9 essential amino acids that the human body cannot synthesize (including 1 essential amino acid for infants and young children). It is especially worth mentioning that the content of lysine that is lacking in general grains is very high (lysine is necessary for the growth and repair of human tissue). The quality and content of quinoa protein are comparable to those of skimmed milk powder and meat. It is the best choice for vegetarians and a high-quality substitute for grains such as rice. If you always feel like you are eating low-quality rice when eating other whole grains, whole grains like quinoa will give you a completely different taste, which is very interesting to eat. Eating this fragrant whole grain is more interesting and healthier than eating refined white rice and noodles. For Chinese people, this kind of western-style healthy whole grains cannot replace the sweet and glutinous white rice, but you must try it for your children. He will like this interesting staple food. There are many ways to eat quinoa, including salads, porridge, and even baking. In the past, Yuzi's mother usually either cooked porridge directly; or boiled water for 15 minutes and put it in the refrigerator. You can add a spoonful of it to any food supplement for the little grapefruit, add a spoonful to it when drinking yogurt, and a spoonful when eating salad. It can be stored in the refrigerator for a week, and the taste is always the same. It is completely different from the hard overnight white rice the next day. I saw the recipe for today's soup on the back of the quinoa package. I tried it and it was really delicious.

Ingredients
Steps
-
After soaking the quinoa in water for half an hour, wash it several times to ensure that any remaining saponins are thoroughly washed away to avoid a slight astringency. Yuzu Mama: Yuzu Mama used “Peruvian three-color quinoa” this time. My mother once asked me to recommend which kind of quinoa is good. I have bought quinoa from many places. I have bought domestically grown quinoa, Bolivian organic quinoa, and Peruvian white, red, and black quinoa. In terms of good quality, it belongs to Peruvian quinoa, which is twice as large as domestic quinoa. Of course the price is higher. You can buy it all over the internet.

Wash tomatoes and cut into cubes. Pour a little oil into the hot pan, add tomatoes and fry.
-
After frying for a minute, add just enough water to cover the tomatoes and cook together with the soaked quinoa.
-
After the fire boils, turn to medium-low heat and cook for 15 minutes. Add the washed green vegetables and cook over high heat for another minute. Yuzu Mama: After the tomatoes and quinoa are cooked, if you add some noodles and cook them together, it will definitely taste great! I will definitely try it next time.

Finally add some salt to taste and serve. Babies who have never eaten salt can skip it. It is very delicious~~~
