Veggie soup with quinoa

Trying to duplicate my love with the soup at Season's Harvest Cafe in Cypress.
The only difference was the price.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup zucchini, sliced
1 cup broccoli
1/4 cup red bell pepper, cubed

Direction:
  1. Cook your broth with my Chicken Broth recipe or open a can of beef broth. 
  2. Boil the ingredients until zucchini and broccoli are tender.
  3. Remove from heat and season with sea salt.
  4. Ready to serve.
My version is good as their version.

Simple Chicken Broth

Chicken was on sale at 59¢ a pound. I bought several. After removing the meat from the bones, I decided to cook these bones for clear chicken broth.

1 set of chicken back and breast cage
2 stalks of celery
3 skinny carrots
half onion
4 cups water

Set to SLOW COOKER mode. It will automatically cook for 8 hours.

This is a base for a lot of soups. You can modify the vegetables as you see fit. Discard the vegetables and season the broth with salt and pepper if necessary.
