Kale Soup Recipe by The Blond Cook
What we love about this soup is that it’s healthy (without sacrificing flavor) and it uses staple pantry ingredients along with fresh vegetables. The leftovers are delicious reheated (so it’s great for meal prepping) and it freezes well, too!
Fresh kale – (one bunch). We find that bunches of kale can vary greatly in size, so an 8 to 12-ounce bunch works in this recipe. You’ll need to remove the large stems and coarsely chop or tear the leaves.CarrotsGarlic – minced fresh garlic is best, but feel free to use the jarred version to speed things up a little.Olive oilVegetable broth – chicken broth can be substituted but it will not be vegetarian.Potatoes – peeled and cut into bite-size pieces.OnionSalt and black pepper – We season with salt and pepper at the end of cooking (especially since the white beans are not drained and adds more sodium).Diced tomatoesCannellini beans – great northern beans can be substituted for cannellini beans.Italian seasoning – feel free to adjust the amount to your liking.Bay leaf – remove and discard before serving.
