Comment préparer Crock Pot Lentils Quinoa
- Rinse 1 cup of green lentils and 1 cup of quinoa under cold water.
- In a 2-4 quart slow cooker, combine the rinsed lentils and quinoa with 4 cups of vegetable broth (or chicken broth for a richer flavor), 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained), 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 carrots (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon coriander, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1 bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook on low for 9 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, or until lentils and quinoa are tender.
- Optional: For a creamier texture, carefully remove about 1-2 cups of the cooked soup and blend it using an immersion blender or regular blender until smooth. Stir the blended soup back into the slow cooker.
- Remove the bay leaf before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh herbs (like parsley or cilantro) and a squeeze of lemon juice (optional).
- Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
