Kale and White Bean Soup

"This is a delicious vegan soup for fall and winter--hearty yet healthy. The 8 cloves of garlic make it extra yummy :) I've added beet greens as well--and the more greens the better, IMO. Make sure you really wilt and reduce the greens so that they melt in your mouth... So delicious! Enjoy."

  1. Very yummy -- however when I make this again I would only use one 15 oz can of tomatoes. The tomatoes were a bit overwhelming. I also added another bunch of kale. The one bunch about 4 packed cups I thought was not enough. I agree to make sure you really allow the kale to wilt. I even aggressive stirred the Kale while sauteing it before adding the broth. Overall good and easy.
