recipe fail

Wednesday night, I set out to make beef, potato and quinoa soup.  The recipe looked so tasty.  The recipe said that "if you like meat and potatoes this soup is for you."  I LOVE meat and potatoes and was curious about this quinoa business.  Quinoa is a grain that has bunches of amino acids and such.  

So here I go.  I've got all my ingredients and I'm rarin' to go.  After 2 hours of simmering on the stove, I was ready to eat!  I invited Nathan over to enjoy the soup.  
After the anticipation, this soup was a major disappointment.  It didn't taste bad but it also didn't taste much at all.  Major bummer.  

However, a much easier, cheaper and less time consuming meal was whole wheat pasta with alfredo sauce.  Major yum :)
