Kale Soup for Everyone

I've been holding onto this recipe for the longest time.  Now that we have an abundance of kale (and tomatoes), I made it for dinner.  All I can say is - yum.

Portuguese Kale Soup

It can easily be made vegan.  We used a bit of leftover andouille sausage and added corn.  The whole recipe makes tons, but its perfect to freeze for later.  We filled up our 8 quart soup pot.  With a large serving for both of us, we still have 2 lunch servings and at least 6 servings to freeze.

If anyone wants to take some kale on Thursday to make this, feel free to raid our plants.

Bi-Color Dinner

Our dinner was Honey Ginger Carrots and steamed green beans with crumbled bacon.  That, and wine.  (Szechuan green beans would have been a better match, but our week+ old beans needed a little face lift before consuming)

I also made tabouli for lunch tomorrow to use up some of our cucumbers and tomatoes.

Even though we still have an abundance of summer squash, I feel as though we've made a serious dent on our veggie supply tonight!
