Ready to rest and reset!
This is the warming dish that is going to do it. Made with dried beans, old school style slow cooking. Of course, you can use canned if you have to. Dried beans might take longer but are cheaper, taste better and you control how healthy or not they are.
Best super food soup of the year and a bonus, no (or very little) waste. Make it your own and enjoy the cosy comforts of tasty goodness.
This recipe served 6 - 8 HEALTHY portions.

RECIPES:
Beans on their own:
2 Cups Dry White Beans: Cover with water. Soak couple hours – overnight is best
Rinse beans, add to medium saucepot, cover with water, 2 inches over.
ADD:
Herb bundle: Thyme, rosemary, sage, Parsley- bay leaf if you got em.
1-5 Garlic cloves
1 Onion, skin removed, cut in half.
Cook on simmer until soft and tender. Cook time ranges from 1 – 2 hours
When al dente, they are ready to go as is or make the soup.
White Bean, Kale and Soup:
Cooked white beans
4 Medium size Carrots, diced
1 large Onion, diced
5 Celery stalks, diced
3 or 4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 lemon, zested and juice
2 - 3 large potatoes, diced (I spaced this, was still AWESOME)
1 Bunch Kale, stems removed (or not) chopped
Veg Broth, enough to cover ingredients in a large pot
Put the soup together, cook on medium low until veg are soft enough. The longer you cook, low and slow the better it will taste.
