Directions

  1. Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. If all water has not been absorbed, drain.

  2. Heat oil in a large pot. Add carrots, celery, and onion, cook and stir until vegetables soften and onions begin to turn translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chickpeas with liquid and cooked quinoa. Stir in jalapeno pepper. Add tomato sauce, salt, and nutritional yeast, stir to combine.

  3. Slowly pour in 2 cups boiling water, add ditalini. Continue to stir, add more water only if needed. Cook until ditalini are al dente, 9 to 10 minutes. Mixture should have a stew-like consistency. Add shrimp, cook and stir until shrimp are heated through, 1 more minute.

  4. Divide among serving bowls, top with fresh, chopped parsley and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
