Requiring less than 10 ingredients (plus s + p), little more than 15 minutes of active kitchen preparation, and a fairly hands off simmer, this soup comes together in a pinch. It's the perfect meal for those busy winter weeknights, and each serving is PACKED with protein (13 grams) and dietary fiber (14 grams)!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

This simple, easy-to-make vegan tuscan kale white bean stew has turned out to be one of my favorite recipes thus far in the cold weather season.<\/p>\n

Here's why:<\/p>\n

1. It comes together with a brief list of easy-to-find ingredients\u2014just nine simple ingredients plus salt and pepper.<\/p>\n

2. It requires just 15 minutes of active preparation (i.e., slicing, chopping, etc.), plus a few stirs here and there.<\/p>\n

3. Despite its simple ingredient list, this stew is PACKED with flavor. Simmering the broth with a bundle of fresh herbs (i.e., rosemary and thyme) infuses it with a rich, aromatic, and irresistible flavor.<\/p>\n

4. It's rich with protein and fiber. One serving (about one-sixth of the recipe) packs a whopping 13 grams of plant-based protein and 14 grams of dietary fiber.<\/p>\n

5. It's brimming with potassium (30% DV), vitamin A (191% DV), vitamin C (132% DV), calcium (17% DV), and iron (36% DV).<\/p>\n

6. It's incredibly satisfying. There's something so unexpectedly and undeniably comforting about this stew. It's perfect all on its own and can be taken to new levels of comfort with a side of hearty bread or crunchy crackers.<\/p>\n

7. It can easily be doubled or even tripled (if you have a pot that will accommodate the volume) for a crowd or to be frozen and enjoyed for quick, reheat-n-eat meals.<\/p>\n

So, without further ado, allow me to show you how to whip together a batch of this simple, easy, and flavorful white bean stew.<\/p>\n

To start, heat a bit of olive oil in a large stockpot or dutch oven over medium-low heat.<\/p>\n

Halve and thinly slice a white onion and add it to the pot. Saut\u00e9 for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes soft and translucent.<\/p>\n

Then, add four cloves of minced garlic and cook for another minute, or until the garlic mellows.<\/p>\n

Now it's time to get a tiny bit messy.<\/p>\n

For this next step, I suggest arming your clothes with an apron, unless you don't mind a stray splash of tomato juice here and there.<\/p>\n

Hand-crush a can of whole peeled tomatoes into the pot, adding any leftover juices as well.<\/p>\n

Then, add a quart of vegetable broth and a bundle of fresh thyme and rosemary.<\/p>\n

Give everything a good stir, bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"Vegan<\/p>\n

Once the base of the soup has finished simmering, use tongs to carefully retrieve and discard the herb bundle.<\/p>\n

Then, stir in one bunch of chopped lacinato kale and three cans of drained and rinsed cannellini beans.<\/p>\n

Give everything a stir and continue to simmer for just five minutes, or until the kale begins to soften and wilt.<\/p>\n

Turn off the heat, taste, and season with more sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.<\/p>\n

Finally, ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm on its own or with a side of hearty bread and\/or crackers.<\/p>\n
