Hearty Italian Soup

Ingredients:

  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
  • 1 small onion, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 carrot, peeled and chopped
  • 1 celery stalk, chopped
  • 4 ounces pancetta or ham, chopped
  • 1/2 cup of Bella Nonnas Ultra Premium EVOO 
  •  15 ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
  • 3 – 15 ounce cans cannellini or great northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
  • 1 bunch kale, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup toasted bread crumbs
  • Grated parmesan

Cooking Instructions:
In a large pot over medium heat, sauté the first five ingredients in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil for 5 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and their juices, along with the beans, broth, and rosemary. Simmer, covered, until the beans break apart, about an hour.

Add the kale and cook for 5 to 7 minutes more. Stir in the bread crumbs and serve, drizzled with the remaining olive oil and sprinkled with the cheese.

Servings : 10-12
