minutesCanned cannellini beans meet Sofrito and Vegetable Stock in this very quick, very delicious and very, very satisfying soup. For a more stew-like consistency, mash half of the beans with a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon. Serve up a small cup to start a meal or a big bowl that is the meal. Simple and super delicious.

1 shallot, minced

1 tsp Dried Greek Oregano
1 cup torn kale

- Add in the Vegetable Stock, Sofrito, beans and Dried Oregano Leaf. Bring up to a boil and back down to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
- Remove the lid and stir in the kale. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the kale is wilted. Taste and adjust the salt.
