WHITE BEAN TOMATO SOUP WITH KALE

• In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, sauté onion for about 8 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. vegetable broth/water for no-oil sauté method, adding more as needed.)
• Meanwhile, mince garlic and dice zucchini.
• When onion is translucent, add garlic, zucchini, and dried basil. Stir and sauté for 1 minute.
• Add 3 cups vegetable broth, diced tomatoes with juice, and balsamic vinegar. Increase heat and bring to a light boil.
• Meanwhile, rinse and drain beans and add to pot.
• Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and gently simmer for 10 minutes.

SMOKY TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil or water (for oil-free cookinover medium heat. Sauté the onion and celery for about 10 minutes, until they are starting to go golden brown. If you are using water to sauté, you will need to add a little more water every few minutes to prevent the onion and celery from sticking.
• Add the garlic, smoked paprika and cumin and continue to cook for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Then add all the other ingredients. Stir well to combine, allow to come to a simmer and cook for another 20 minutes. Add a little water to adjust the consistency to your liking, check the seasoning and adjust to taste; then serve. I like the soup chunky, but you can use an immersion blender right in the pan to make it smoother and creamier, if you want to.
• tips: Make this soup with only 11/2 to 2 cups (360 to 480 mof stock instead of 3 cups (720 ml), so it's more like a thick stew, and serve it over rice, quinoa or couscous.

WHITE BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Place a large Dutch oven, or heavy bottom pot, over medium-high heat.
• Once the pot is hot, add in a small drizzle of olive oil, and the chopped bacon; crisp the bacon completely until nice and brown, then remove with a slotted spoon, drain it on some paper towel, and set it aside for a moment; reserve about 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat, and set that aside for a moment, as well; wipe out the pot, and return it to medium-high heat.
• Next, add back into the pot the bacon fat, along with the olive oil and the butter, and allow them to melt together.
• Once butter is melted and sizzling, add in the diced onion, carrots and celery, and allow them to soften and saute for about 5 minutes.
• Next, add in the garlic, and once it becomes aromatic, add in about 2/3 of the reserved, crisped bacon, as well as the Italian seasoning, the sea salt and the pepper, along with the white beans, and stir to combine.
• Now add in the hot chicken stock, stir, and allow the soup to gently simmer for about 40-45 minutes, partially covered with lid.
• About half way through the cooking process, mash the beans a little bit with the back of your spoon, or with a potato masher, to break up the beans a little bit and release their natural starch to thicken the soup.
• After about 40 minutes, turn the heat off and finish the soup by adding in the chopped parsley, the lemon zest and the lemon juice.
• Serve the soup with some nice, crusty bread to dip, and garnish with some of the remaining crisped bacon.
