A one-pot pantry soup built from canned beans, stock and whatever greens are wilting in the drawer — blended half-smooth for body without cream.

- 2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- 3 cups kale, stemmed and chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil

- Parmesan rind (optional)
Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot and sauté the onion and garlic until soft.
- Add the beans, stock, rosemary and Parmesan rind if using, and simmer for 12 minutes.

- Stir in the kale and cook for 3-4 minutes until wilted.
- Season to taste and serve with crusty bread.
