Equipment

  • large pot
  • blender

Ingredients
  

  • 3 15 ounce cans cannellini beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 medium yellow onion finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large carrots peeled and chopped
  • 1 stalk celery diced
  • ⅓ cup white wine I used pinot grigio
  • 2 cups kale stems removed, finely chopped
  • 2.5 – 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth see notes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes omit if you don’t like spice
  • ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions
 

  • Saute the finely chopped onion in a large pot with the olive oil.
  • Once it starts to brown slightly, add in the garlic, celery, and carrot. Saute for an additional 10 minutes to soften and brown the veggies.
  • Add in the white wine and saute until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Add in all remaining ingredients except for the kale and stir well.
  • Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Discard the bay leaves, then transfer about 2 ½ – 3 cups worth of the soup to a blender. Blend until smooth.
  • Transfer back to the pot and stir well to combine. Adjust broth for desired consistency.
  • Add in the chopped kale and let simmer for a few minutes to allow the kale to wilt.
  • Taste and adjust flavors as desired, adding salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
  • Serve warm as is or with hearty bread on the side. Enjoy!

Notes

Broth amount depends on desired thickness. Start with 2 ½ cups for thicker soup or more for thinner soup. Wine is optional but adds flavor.
