This was delicious - even my carnivorous husband liked it. I did add some chicken to it, and used black beans b/c that was what I had on hand. I added some egg noodles and carrots as well. I pureed half of the black beans and a few of the carrots, and that gave a nice consistency.

This soup was easy and delicious. I have never eaten kale before but could not pass it up on the BOGO sale this week. I added carrots and celery as I wanted to use up these ingredients. I also used dried beans, canned tomatoes, dried parsley, and herbes de provence as I had these ingredients on hand. I added a little garlic salt and a few dashes of hot sauce as I was afraid the soup might taste like kale or be flavorless. As other reviewers have said, it really is good! I had it with 1/2 of a sandwich for lunch and it was very filling.

4 stars for the healthy elements in this soup. 2 stars for the absolutely boring taste. I am a vegetarian and normally cook low fat meals but this did not hit the spot. Followed it exactly as written then simmered in a crock pot for 3 hours and blended at the end. I wouldn't spend the time to make this soup again.

I love this soup! I combined this recipe with the Cannelini Bean with Flat Leaf Kale soup. I used chopped turkey kielbasa and a cup of chopped carrots and a can of diced tomatoes for ease. I omitted the onion and used four or five cloves of garlic. I also added a cup of ditalini or other small pasta at the end which I really thought made the soup. I made this for a light post Christmas dinner and everyone loved it.

I loved this soup! I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of fresh, and it turned out really well. I will definitely make this again.

Really delicious soup that is very easy to make. I added about 2 cups of vegetarian sausage crumbles, and about a tsp each of cumin and cayenne pepper. Next time I will blend more of the beans for an even thicker stock.

This was so good even my veggie-avoiding husband raved about it. I didn't have onion, but I used fresh Italian parsley for the seasoning and substituted black beans and garbanzo beans instead of white beans. I mashed the garbanzos with a potato masher to keep the consistency a little chunky, and simmered for 45+ minutes on very low heat. It turned out fantastic.

I loved this recipe! The soup is SO good! We are going out of town, so I froze the extra, but I really want to eat more! I used regular tomatoes and added mozzeralla/parmesan cheese on top! Tasty!

this recipe looks boring, but is really tasty did not have white beans, so used pinto beans and increased the kale. The pureed beans makes a really nice base. Easy and yummy.

Excellent! Ratio of liquid to other ingredients was perfect, and seasoning was well-proportioned. Not an over-powering soup but a comforting mix of flavors.

We loved this simple and delicious soup! My hubby came home from work and immediately asked about the wonderful smell all throughout the house! I followed the recipe very closely, but I did substitute a can of tomatoes for the fresh and added extra kale since I had no fresh parsley available. So yummy! We will be making this for years to come, thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, and threw a sprig of parsley in the pot while it was cooking, but otherwise left the recipe alone. I used one can of navy beans and one can of cannellini. It's a good, hearty, earthy winter or autumn soup, that practically demands a side of warm, crusty bread with butter. It's a solid, but not exceptional recipe - I'm certainly enjoying the bowl in front of me right now, but I doubt I'll make it again.
