Recipe Challenge: Day 21 - Greens , Beans Soup

Pin It

There's nothing like soup :) This is an easy hearty soup to pull together as a side to a meal or just to enjoy alone. My kids adored this so much,there's no leftovers what so ever! What more can I ask for?

Instead of just Kale, I put Spinach in it as well fresh from the garden. It was wonderful, I really liked the taste of this. With added pepper and some minced garlic the soup came together nicely.

Greens , Beans Soup

Ingredients
3 cups packed chopped Kale (mustard greens or spinach work in a pitch)
2/1/4 cups water
1 cup chopped onion
1/4 pepper
2 cups cannelloni beans (I added about 3 cups to feed my entire crew)
1 1/2  cup and a half of chicken broth
two garlic cloves minced
Directions

Add some bacon dripping (or butter about 2 tablespoons) in a saucepan over med. heat. Add Kale and the next 5 ingredients. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes till beans are tender.

Simple , quick and delicious (:
