Cocktail Pairings
Tips on Chicken, White Bean, and Kale Soup
Substitute 2 cups of seeded, diced fresh tomatoes for the can of tomatoes, if desired.
Be sure to strip the kale leaves off their stems before chopping. Kale stems are tough and not very tasty.
Swap 1 tablespoon dried parsley for the fresh parsley, if that's what you have on hand.
White beans will get tough if you add them in too soon, so be sure to not mix them in until the end of the cooking.
