I love how the kale in this lentil kale soup becomes so tender.
Green Vegan Stew
This lentil and kale soup is the perfect example.
Recipe Summary Green Vegan Stew
This is the kind of soup to make when you find yourself with too many greens and need a vitamin-packed alternative to yet another salad. We ate the stew plain with crusty bread as well as served over rice, and enjoyed it both ways.Ingredients | Soup Recipes With Kale And Lentils
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, diced
8 cups vegetable broth
1 cup lentils
2 cups chopped Russian kale, or more to taste
2 cups chopped Swiss chard, or more to taste
2 cups chopped mustard greens, or more to taste
½ cup nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons thyme
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
salt to taste
Directions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion until soft, about 3 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth. Increase heat to high and bring broth to a boil. Add lentils. Reduce heat to medium and cook until soft, about 45 minutes.
Stir kale, Swiss chard, and mustard greens into the broth; simmer until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in nutritional yeast, garlic powder, thyme, pepper, and salt. Let soup cool, about 10 minutes.
Transfer soup to a blender; puree until smooth. Pour back into the pot and reheat, about 5 minutes.
It would be interesting to try this recipe with various mixtures of greens. This was an interesting combination; I made it with fingers crossed, but it turned out great!
Substitute water for the vegetable broth if desired.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup if preferred.
