HEALTHY BEAN SOUP WITH KALE



Healthy Bean Soup With Kale image

We've all heard how anti-oxidants fight cancer, save eyesight, and prevent clogged arteries. Turns out lutein, a delicious 7 mg dose of which is supplied with each serving of this recipe, is even more beneficial than beta carotene. It delays lung aging and combats arthritis to boot! Who knew improving your health could be so quick and easy, and taste so good? Try it -- you'll see! P.S. Since I felt this lacked enough elements to chew on, I've been adding canned, sliced carrots (fast, easy & healthy!) for quite a while, and thought I'd update the recipe. Also, sometimes I add another can of beans, for the same reason. Glad so many of you have been enjoying this. There's a container in my frig right now - yum!

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight helps to soften them and reduce the cooking time. It also helps to remove some of the indigestible sugars, which can cause gas and bloating.
  • Use a variety of beans: Using a variety of beans adds flavor and texture to the soup. Some good options include black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and white beans.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, nutrients, and color to the soup. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and kale.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a flavorful one. You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Season the soup well: Season the soup with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. Some good options include cumin, chili powder, and paprika.
  • Serve the soup with crusty bread or crackers: Crusty bread or crackers are a great way to soak up the soup and add some extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Bean soup with kale is a delicious, healthy, and affordable meal that is perfect for a cold day. It's also a great way to use up leftover beans. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a pot of bean soup that your whole family will enjoy.
