By popular demand, another Prolong soup recipe: the Minestrone and Quinoa Soup blend. If you have seen my post 5 Prolon-Inspired Soup Recipes, you will find that this one resembles closely the Minestrone Soup Blend recipe. The main difference is the addition of quinoa. Also, it doesn’t include legumes and has a few different vegetables. Let’s check it out!
