Heal your body from the inside out...

Soup is one of the most healing foods you can eat! A vegetable soup that is packed with important key nutrients can boost our immune system and assist in healing when our body is in a weakened state or is internally fighting a disease.

Eating more soup can make you slimmer!

Soup contains a lot of water, nutrients and fewer calories. A soup that is packed with beans, hearty vegetables and meat, will keep you full longer. When paired with an exercise routine, soups can assist in maintaining a healthy weight. Choose soups that are light and broth-y with lot’s of vegetables instead of the creamy, carb-packed options.

Eating on a Budget

If you are looking for an inexpensive way to serve good food to a crowd or simply cut down on your grocery bill, soup is the way to go! Most times I use whatever is left in the fridge, this way nothing goes to waste and we get to enjoy a tasty meal. However, even if you want to follow a specific soup recipe, most likely the ingredients required are low cost.

The ONE product I personally use, love and recommend is the Better Than Bouillon Organic Vegetable Base, (it comes in different flavors). I always keep this ingredient in my pantry for those last minute soup cravings. I use the Better Than Bouillon products because they don’t take up a lot of space in my pantry/ fridge and once opened they will last a lot longer then the liquid based broth, plus the flavors are super delicious.

About this recipe...

This Cannellini Sausage Kale Soup serves a good purpose if you are looking for a hearty soup and that packed with protein. Cannellini (or white beans) are one of the highest source of plant protein and is fairly mild in taste. If you are not a huge fan of beans but want to give it a try, this is a great option to start with.

I used organic no-hormones added fully cooked chicken sausage, however you can definitely opt out if you are on a vegetarian diet. The sausage pairs really well with the beans and vegetables in this recipe.

Overall, this is a deliciously fulfilling and budget-friendly soup recipe for the whole family. A one pot complete meal done in 30-minutes, perfect for those busy weeknights.
