Quinoa in soup- quick i need advice

I think quinoa is lovely in soup (so is pearl barley, eat with miso, yum!) but liquidising it... ooh, I can't see why not, but sounds gross to me.

Why are you so keen to have your DD eat it?

I guess it's worth a try... if you read the lit (like Diet for a Small Planet & the sequel to that book, forget the name) it's pretty emphatic that vegetarians/vegans rarely need to worry about "complete" proteins, a varied diet is nearly always going to suffice.

just to update- i liquidised the quinoa a little bit with the onions as i think the texture was what she objected to. She loved the soup and ate every bit! Toddlers eh!

damn blown my cover!
