I made some changes: I used only one can of cannellini beans, which seemed like just the right amount. I also used one can of plain peeled tomatoes, and added some red pepper flakes, and I squeezed some fresh lemon juice onto everything just before eating, which was a nice touch. This is an easy recipe to make and quite tasty and healthy.

An awesome dish! We used chicken broth and a little white wine. Also used fire-roasted tomatoes and substituted shallots for onions. Skipped the croutons (will try that some other time) and served over whole wheat angel hair pasta. A little parmesan on top was a nice addition. It was a filling and delicious meal. I will make this often.

I have a mixed family of vegetarians and carnivores, so this is a perfect recipe that pleases everyone. I add diced chicken for the meat eaters. I also reduced to one can of beans, and threw in a handful of orzo to add a little more bulk and it was perfect. My husband thinks vegetarian meals lack substance, but he loved this dish! It's hearty for a vegetable stew.

Oh my god this is so good!! I made it once without the onion powder then the 2nd time with it and found it to make a difference. Didn't have fresh oregano an parsley so I used dried and still tastes great. Kale is a great source of proteins and fiber as well as the beans. Also added some red pepper flakes like others suggested and the little kick was great! Totally recommend this for a good healthy dish!

I only had half the kale, so I halved all ingredients except the can of tomatoes (I just didn't want to figure out what to do with another half a can of tomatoes). I also used a whole can of diced chilies since my tomatoes did not have them. Used dry oregano and basil, so I put those in with the other seasonings in the beginning instead of the end of cooking. Other than that kept to the recipe. I really like this! Great combo of flavors. Served with a tuna melt and made for a great and healthy meal.

This soup was amazing. I used garlic paste instead of minced garlic, real onions, added a can of green chiles since the can of diced tomatoes I had on hand did not come with them. Used vegetable broth instead of water. I also put parmesan and shredded mild cheddar cheese before serving on top and served with garlic bread. YUM. My husband was hungry and started serving it after an hour on the stove and it was not until after we ate it, I realized I did not do the last step with the beans, basil and oregano. But it was really good anyway!

This was great! I reduced the beans to one can and threw in regular diced tomatoes, adding red pepper flakes to make it spicier (I can't find canned tomatoes with chilis). I also used dried herbs to save money. Used chicken broth as another reviewer suggested. I did this in the slow cooker, and it turned out to be very, very tasty, with very little hassle!

I thought this was good, but I did find it a bit bland. I did add red pepper flakes, but I would try adding red wine next time as some reviewers suggested. I served it over pasta to make it a heartier meal, and it was a tad dry. If you want to put it over pasta I would suggest increasing the diced tomatoes. There were non-vegetarians at our meal who added sausage on top, and they seemed to enjoy the meal more. If you want to use up Kale, I strongly suggest the "Kale Puttanesca" recipe from this site. Yum!

Ok, so I didn't have most of the ingredients, but still the dish came out pretty good. I used canola oil instead of olive, garbanzo beans and garlic powder since I didn't have any cloves. I also had to use a metal pot instead of a deep pan. This is the kind of dish that you can experiment with different kinds of spices and vegetables, as long as you get the water and oil proportions right. I guess my only complaint is that it took an hour to cook, but the time is worth it in the end.

I really enjoyed this! I used up a bunch of kale that had been sitting in my fridge for over a week and it was still very tasty. Because I like things with a little kick I added red pepper flakes on top and it was great. I think it needs a little something to deepen the flavor a little. Next time I make this I think I'll add a splash of red wine to the onions and kale and let it simmer down and add some fresh grated parm/romano on top at the end. If you *must* have meat this would probably be good with some sliced Italian sausage.

This is delicious! I made it for dinner tonight, and it was really really good. I made a few changes: I used frozen kale, defrosted it in water and then put it in. I also used less Kale then what is called for. I used one and a half cans of beans, and I washed them before I put them in. I sauteed mushrooms with the onions. I also put some Franks Hot Sauce in it, it gave it a nice tangy flavor. When I put it in my bowl, I topped it with parmesan cheese and ate it with crusty sourdough bread. Wonderful!
