Directions & Preparation
Peel and finely chop the carrots, onions, and celery. Chop the parsley. Chop the oregano, thyme or rosemary, if using.
Remove stem from the kale.
Heat oil in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add onions, carrots and celery, and sauté until barely tender, about 5 minutes. Add beans and garlic and stir for 2 minutes.
Stir in tomatoes and their juices, add the kale and the vegetable stock. Simmer for 20 minutes.
Add quinoa, parsley, oregano or other herb, and bay leaf. Cover and simmer until quinoa is cooked, 12 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove bay leaf and serve.
