Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced.
2 large potatoes peeled and diced.
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 can (15 ounces) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed.
2 cups chopped kale; stems removed.
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Grated Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)
Crusty bread for serving (optional)
Preparation
Sauté the aromatics: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the potatoes: Add the diced potatoes to the pot with the sautéed onion and garlic and stir to combine.
Simmer the soup: Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, making sure the potatoes are covered. Bring the soup to a simmer over medium heat. Cover the pot and let the soup simmer gently for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Add the beans and kale: Once the potatoes are cooked through, add the drained and rinsed cannellini beans, chopped kale, and dried thyme to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Season the soup: Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
Simmer until kale is tender: Let the soup simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the kale is wilted and tender.
Serve: Ladle the Potato, Kale, and Cannellini Bean Soup into bowls. If desired, sprinkle each serving with grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor. Serve hot with crusty bread on the side for a delicious and satisfying meal.
