This Bean and Kale Soup recipe is simple, affordable comfort food. I adapted it from the Italian Sausage and Bean Soup.
Using canned beans helps get this soup from stove to table quickly. I’ve been making this soup pretty often lately. I make a big pot, so we have leftovers for the next day.
Or sometimes I freeze the leftovers for another meal later on.
Either way, it’s warm, quick, healthy and delicious!
