Hearty Vegetable and Bean Soup

  • 2 T coconut oil
  • 2 large onions, diced
  • 1 1/2 T minced garlic
  • kale, Swiss chard, or any variety of greens, coarsely chopped (I use a bag of kale and 5 oz. fresh spinach.)
  • 8 carrots, sliced 1/2″ thick
  • 5 celery stalks, sliced 1/2″ thick
  • 1 T salt
  • 1 t pepper
  • 8 C vegetable stock (or chicken broth)
  • 1 (15 oz.) can great northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 oz.) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

Prep veggies and set aside. Heat a large pot on medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and onions, stirring often. When opaque and lightly browned, add garlic and cook until browned. Add carrots and celery, stirring occasionally for a few minutes. Add salt, pepper, and chicken broth. When the liquid comes to a boil, add the chopped greens and the beans. Cook another 10 minutes until greens have wilted and carrots can be pricked by a fork. Serve hot.
