Hearty Kale Chicken Soup
2016-08-18 18:17:08

I know it seems strange to eat hot soup in the summer, but sometimes I just crave a good bowl of soup. My friend Laura in Kansas City is the same way. Our husbands laugh and poke fun of us because we enjoy a good bowl of soup when it is 90 degrees outside. All I know is it was good and very satisfying. I made some for the neighbor who just was in the hospital, but when I came back after my walk there was nothing left in the pot. The neighbor didn't get any soup because my family ate it all. When I find an empty pot, that is always a sure sign that it was good. So here you have it Hearty Kale Chicken Soup with white beans and lot of chunky vegetables. Please let me know what you think. I have also made my images Pinterest friendly. So PIN away. I hope to hear from you. Until next time - Bon Appetit, Cecelia

Cecelia's Good Stuff https://ceceliasgoodstuff.com/

I used some china that my late mother-in-law Kelly gave me. I was having fun setting a beautiful table. It was lovely and I wanted to share it with you. I just love a beautifully set table.

Hearty Kale Chicken Soup loaded with chunks of chicken, white beans, kale, and lots and lots of delicious vegetables. It was amazing, so good in fact that the pot was empty when I returned from my evening walk.

Centerpiece using some silver plated pieces I found at an estate sale.
