A hearty kale, mushroom and bean soup packed with nutrition.
Kale, Mushroom and Bean Soup
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery, chopped
- 8 oz baby bellas, sliced
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 can Bush's Kidney Beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can Bush's Northern Beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 tablespoon chicken or vegetable bouillon base
- 3 cans water (I used the tomato and bean cans to capture leftover flavors)
- Head of kale, thinly sliced
- salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
- In a large pot, gently heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add carrots and celery and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook a few minutes until slightly softened. Add tomatoes, oregano, beans, bouillon base and water to pot. Bring to a slow boil and add kale. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper and let simmer for about 25 minutes until all vegetables are cooked through. Taste for seasoning and adjust to your liking.
Serve in a large bowl with wild rice or quinoa and grated parmesan cheese for a hearty, but light, meal.
