Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until it begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Add onion and carrots; cook and stir until carrots begin to brown and onion becomes translucent, 7 to 8 minutes. Add collard greens; cook and stir until wilted, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add black-eyed peas and pour in vegetable broth; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until vegetables are softened, 20 to 25 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, bring water and quinoa to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until all water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Stir cooked quinoa into soup and continue simmering until collard greens are tender, about 10 more minutes. Stir in cider vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
