Excellent soup! Not too brothy and not too chunky. Painless way to eat healthy greens.

This was yummy, nothing special in the flavor dept, but good, and super nutritious! My 3yo and I ate it with toasted slices of hearty Italian bread from Puglia. We scooped it onto the bread which had been drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with salt. Yum. For my 3yo I chopped the kale smaller than I normally would have, but I ended up liking it that way too. Never would have thought I'd get my toddler to eat kale, so this is a keeper!

Great variation on standard navy/white bean soup. In enjoyed the 1st batch as-is but made a few tweaks to the 2nd batch: - I prefer hearty soups so I doubled the beans and eased off on the chicken broth; - I used cherry tomatoes (since I keep those on hand) and ended up really liking the difference in texture (canned tomatoes also work decently but I was less a fan); and - I added dried parsley directly into the soup with the other seasonings and made sure to adequately salt (~1/2 to 1 tsp). In short, this is a great winter soup I will definitely be making again!

This soup is easy, delicious, inexpensive to make, and full of nutrients. What more could you ask for. I sauteed some turkey sausage slices along with the onion and garlic, which gave it a delicious extra seasoning, then removed the sausage and set it aside while finishing the rest of the soup. I didn't have any decent-looking tomatoes so I just dumped in a 15-oz can of diced tomatoes, which worked fine. Lastly, I found it necessary to add more broth toward the end, because I like to cook down broths to increase the flavor...so I concentrated it and then added another cup and a half or so later to thin it out. Yum. My family ate this all up in one night, so when I make it again I will probably double it.

we cooked this in our Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden classes this week and it was quite a hit with all primary school classes.We used tinned tomatoes as our own tomatoes aren't in season just yet and used a stick blender for a few seconds to give the broth a thicker texture while leaving it chunky. this is definitely going on our seasonal menu :)

Soup was a little heavy on the onion and garlic side for me, but otherwise good. Flavors really improved after a day or so.
