Tuscan white bean soup

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Saute the finely chopped onion in a large pot with the oil.

  2. 2

    Once it starts to brown slightly, add in the garlic, celery and carrot. Saute an additional 10 or so minutes to let the veggies soften and brown slightly.

  3. 3

    Add in the white wine and saute until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add in all remaining ingredients except for the kale and stir well.

  5. 5

    Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let simmer for 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Discard the bay leaves, then transfer about 2 1/2 – 3 cups worth of the soup to a blender. Blend until smooth.

  7. 7

    Transfer back to the pot and stir well to combine. If it’s too thick, add in more broth until it reaches your desired consistency.

  8. 8

    Add in the chopped kale and let simmer for a few minutes to allow the kale to wilt. Taste and adjust flavors. I usually add a bit more salt and pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice.
