Kale and White Bean Soup

Kale is right up there with cabbage when it comes to great foods for the skin. So here is a delicious healthy skin recipe using kale – Kale & White Bean Soup. It takes 15 minutes to prepare.

Ingredients

• 2 tbs coconut oil
• 1 large onion
• 1 bunch kale (chopped)
• 1 can (15 oz) white beans
• 1 can (15 oz) crushed tomatoes

Preparation

• Chop the onion and sautee it in coconut oil until soft
• Then add chopped kale and cook for 2 minutes
• Add a drained can of white beans (15 oz) and a can of crushed tomatoes
• Cook for a few minutes, then add 2 cups of water
• Bring to a boil, add ½ tsp salt plus and a little cayenne pepper
• Simmer for 10 minutes, then serve

The soup is thick, but I like it that way. You can add more liquid or more tomatoes or beans to taste. It goes great with corn bread (not to mention the beans and grain would make up a complete protein.)

It takes hardly any time to make this soup, and I couldn’t stop eating it!
