2 Bay Leaves
2 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Onion, chopped
1 Leek, white and pale-green parts only, thinly sliced
2 Carrots, peeled, chopped
2 Celery stalks, chopped
4 Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoon Tomato paste
1 can 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, drained
2 cans 15-ounce cans Cannellini beans, rinsed

This soup is a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices to taste.

I love the addition of kale to this soup. It gives it a nice nutritional boost and a bit of a peppery flavor.

This soup is a great way to warm up on a cold day. It's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great! It was so easy to just throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook all day.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt than the recipe calls for.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but I really enjoyed this soup. The kale added a nice nutritional boost and didn't overpower the other flavors.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of random vegetables in my fridge and this soup is a great way to use them up.

This soup was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the texture was a bit too thick for my taste.

I made this soup last night and it was a hit with my family! Everyone loved the flavor and the texture. I will definitely be making this soup again.
