I found this recipe at From Pasta to Paleo. The dish met a few criteria: I needed to use some leftover kale, I wanted to expand our soup repertoire, and the combination of kale, broccoli, and spinach meant that it would be packed with nutrients while remaining low in calories. I made one critical substitution: I replaced the recommended chicken stock with a vegetable base. In general I avoid using pre-made sodium laden stocks, preferring to add "Better than Bouillon" pastes to water. The resulting soup was delicious but we thought it lacked a little "body," an outcome tied to my conservative use of the bouillon paste. The next time I make this dish I will increase the amount of bouillon paste to amplify the flavors.
