Tuscan Kale and White Bean Soup
Course Soup
Cuisine Italian
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Wooden Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 bunch kale, stems removed and leaves chopped
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3 minutes until it softens.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the chopped kale and stir for 2 minutes until it begins to wilt.
  • Pour in the vegetable broth. Add the drained white beans, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the kale is tender and the flavors have blended.

Notes

If the broth reduces too much during simmering, add a splash of water to reach your preferred consistency. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to three days and reheat gently on the stove without losing much texture. For a brighter finish, stir in a squeeze of lemon juice right before serving.
