Saute: In a large pot or dutch oven, heat oil or water over medium heat, add leeks, carrots and celery and saute about 5 – 7 minutes (leeks should be softened and wilted). Add garlic and herbs & red pepper flakes, saute 1 minute more or until fragrant.

Boil & Simmer: Add liquids and beans, bring to a slight boil, add kale, turn down heat to low and cook until kale softens and wilts, about 5 minutes. Add lemon juice and salt & pepper to taste. Add extra water/broth as needed.

Serve with a sprinkle of parsley and squeeze of lemon. A light dusting of Almond Parmesan would be a nice touch too. Pair with your favorite crusty bread or naan bread to soak up the juices.

Serves 4 – 6

Add in 1/2 cup of orzo before bringing to a boil, cook soup at least 10 minutes on medium before adding the kale. Add an extra cup of water if needed.

Use 1 onion in place of the leeks if needed. Dice onion and cook the same as the leeks in this recipe.

Use baby kale in the tub (5 oz.) if you prefer.
