Notes: I received this recipe in a Christmas card one year from my friend Kimberly who moved to Seattle so there was plenty of reason for her to make soup! I enjoy making this as it is easy, tasty and healthy with the kale. Great for a cold winter day. I've even been able to add kale grown from my own garden! Enjoy!
