Chickpea & kale soup is super healthy and it is a favourite in my family. Kale is highly nutritious and is rich in Vitamin C, B6, and manganese. In fact, one cup of kale will supply more than 70% of the RDI for vitamin C, with an intake of only 20 calories. Additionally, kale is also high in calcium and has anti-cancer properties.
Directions:
- In the pan, put some sesame / olive oil. Cook the onions for 3 – 4 minutes.
- Add the chopped carrots and pumpkins in. Saute for 5 – 7 minutes.
- Add tomato puréee into the pot.
- Add salt and celery stock / water into the pot.
- Cover the pot with a lid and let it simmer for around 20 minutes, or till the veggies are nearly done.
- After 20 minutes, add chickpeas and kale into the pot.
- Stir and cook for another 5 – 7 minutes.
