Instructions

In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, bell peppers, carrot, celery, garlic, cumin, and chili powder. Sauté until the vegetables soften, around 10 minutes.
Stir in crushed tomatoes and green chile peppers. Pour in vegetable broth, chickpeas, and quinoa. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Stir in corn and heat through, about 5 minutes. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with avocado slices before serving.
