20 March 2012 - I made these changes. I forgot to put in salt and added about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of water and a Rapunzel bouilion cube. AND I cooked it for a while, (at least 1/2 hour), otherwise it just looked too raw. Art & Elyssa liked it, and it was pretty simple. And it has kale!
I served it with open face broccoli and cheese sandwiches (shredded italian, and a little grated pecorino romano), and sauteed zucchini.

“Top this soup with crumbled tortilla chips, and or grated cheese, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or asadero.”
