Pistou Vegetable Soup

From the Kitchen of Melissa B

3 Cans Navy Beans
1 large onion
4 Cloves of Garlic
3 Carrots, chopped
1 Celery rib, chopped
4 small-medium Potatoes, diced
28 oz. Can diced Tomatoes
1/4 head cabbage, shredded
8 leaves Kale, stiff ribs cut out and then shred leaves
6 Cups(or more) chicken broth
1 tsp. thyme
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Drain and rinse beans. Puree half the beans in a food processor or blender (may need to add a little chicken broth to help them blend-just don't use the liquid from the canned beans as it helps cause excess gas) and set aside

In a large pot, saute the onions and garlic in a little chicken broth for a couple of minutes. Add carrots, celery, and potatoes and saute another 2 minutes.

Add tomatoes, including their liquid, beans, bean puree and seasoning. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth to mixture ( or sooner if it seems to be drying out).

Add cabbage and kale, correct the seasoning and serve with hot, homemade bread!

This soup is traditionally served with Pesto on the top.
