Bean, Kale, and Brown Rice Soup

December 20, 2013 by Monica Nelson Leave a Comment

God Bless My Mom.  So there I was visiting home in Colorado on a snowboard trip last month and to see a best friend up in the mountains.  We did a lot of hard snowboarding and eating out the entire time.  So when I had the one night at my mom’s house before I flew out, she came to the rescue with this recipe!

She made me this amazing, very HEALTHY, and SO DELICIOUS “Stoup” (soup+stew=stoup) for me.  Not only did it make me feel better….(Ahhh Nutrients,) but it also warmed up my body (brrrr) and my heart as well.  I changed it up just a bit and it is now a staple meal over here.

So here you go… the easiest, most affordable, and super delicious soup.

I also could  not stop there though. I make a Cheese and Tomato Toast to go along, and the recipe is below…so worth it and takes maybe 5 mins.

NOTE: My mom used white meat ground turkey but you can also use Chickpeas (or use White Beans). I like to switch it up and you can’t go wrong with either.

I have a very similar soup to this…my Two-Bean Soup with Kale (included with my cheese and tomato toast!)

Or try all my other Soups for even more recipes.  Enjoy~

CHEESE-TOMATO TOASTS:

6 big crackers, whole-wheat
3 plum (works best) tomatoes, sliced thinly
Parmigiano-Reggiani cheese
basil, finely chopped
olive oil

1. Broil oven on high.
2. Place crackers on a pan, place tomatoes evenly, sprinkle with the cheese, top with basil and drizzle olive oil lightly.
3. Only takes about 3 mins and DONE!
