Comments
This Kale and White Bean Soup is one of my favorite soups and an easy way to eat your greens. Some days when I want to add some extra protein, I like to include some lean ground beef or ground turkey.
I made this recipe with 1st graders and it was great, some remarked it was like a pizza soup. Easy, yummy and fun to make.
This is a great recipe: easy, delicious, and nutritious! I have made it with white beans, and after Thanksgiving substituted leftover cooked turkey for the beans. Delicious either way!
Perfectly delicious! The only complaint we had was that we didn't make enough and were without leftovers.
This is tasty and filling. It’d be great on rice! For those who like a little more saltiness, try a teaspoon of soy sauce to add depth. Could also throw in chicken or sausage to add some protein!
I used this recipe for a Food Hero Demo at a DHS office, very popular and my favorite comment was from an 8 year old girl, "This is the best soup I've ever had! I love kale!"
