Kale and sweet potato soup
I got this soup idea from a soup they’re selling at Whole Foods. Not only is it so easy a monkey could make it, it’s also packed with vitamins and makes an excellent lunch! Kale can be difficult to incorporate into meals but should be used on a regular basis for its strong health benefits. This soup is the solution. Serve it with a nice gruyere jalapeno grilled cheese or a quiche.

This is the best, simplest soup recipe! So delicious and warming. Stores well in my mason jars. I just shared the recipe with my boss. She won’t be disappointed! I skip the celery because I don’t really like it and use veggie broth instead of chicken and it’s fantastic! Thank you so much for posting this. A lot of similar recipes are “chowders” and call for cream or milk or something and I’m lactose intolerant but I’d put this soup recipe up against those chowders any time.
