Recipe: Ham, Parsnip, and Kale Soup

I couldnt find a recipe with ham and white kidney beans, so I came up with this. Luckily, it came out exactly as I imagined. I simmered it all day, just because thats how I like to make my soup. But it was cooked within 30 minutes at a low boil, but had more flavor after a long simmer covered. I served with Italian 5-grain bread buttered and toasted.

Ham, Parsnip, And Kale Soup Reviews

• This turned out so good

• This was good I personally think it needs some more seasoning/salt and more hot sauce but to each their own. Go with what you like and you cant go wrong

• Added potatoes instead of mushrooms because thats what I had on hand. This soup is really, really good. This is another meal for otherwise fussy eaters.

• I loved it, I added a can of peas, potatoes, and a couple of turnips
