This week, I had extra cans of white beans and tons of kale that needed to be used, thus resulting in this delicious White Bean Kale Soup. This soup is hearty, very flavorful, and comes together in less than 30 minutes! It’s a perfect low-effort, healthy meal that takes only 10 minutes of your time in the kitchen. (If you’re like me you love cooking, but could use a little break!)
So, let’s use those extra beans in your pantry and make this delicious White Bean Kale Soup!
Start by chopping onion, celery, jalapeno, habanero (trust me you’ll love it in this soup), and garlic. Then, add ghee and olive oil to the dutch oven pot over medium heat and saute the onions for about 5 minutes. You will want the onions to get lightly caramelized because this adds a delicious sweet flavor to the soup.
After cooking onions, add the chopped celery, peppers, and garlic and saute for about 2-3 minutes.
Then, using a blender or food processor pulse 1 can of garbanzo beans with 1 tablespoon water until the beans are completely mashed (you can also mash by hand). Then add the mashed beans, broth, and water into the pot and bring to a boil.
Add beans, kale, seasonings, and parsley. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the pot and let simmer for 20 minutes, or until the kale is tender. Season with salt and pepper.
All done! In less than 30 minutes you have an incredibly flavorful soup that you can pair with a baguette, salad, sandwich, or enjoy on its own!
I hope you enjoy this White Bean Kale Soup Recipe!

Bought some kale today and have white beans but not garbanzo. Will the recipe still work? Thanks
It certainly will! Hope you Enjoy!
This soup recipe was delicious. I made it last week for meal prep and going to make it again this week.
This soup sounds delicious. I have so many cans of beans that I was looking for a recipe to use a good mix of them and this sounds like it. Do you think that cannellini beans would work too?
Hi Kristina, cannellini beans would work great! Enjoy the recipe 🙂
