If it’s as cold where you are as it is in London right now, sitting down to a hot bowl of homemade soup will hopefully sound like the perfect way to help warm you up!
I have a guest post for you today from the beautiful Bobbi from the blog NHerShoes and her recipe for kale, sweet potato and bean soup sounds absolutely mouthwatering.
I hope you enjoy!

This looks so good!
Thanks for the recipe! I’m always looking for more meatless dishes to incorporate for Dinner as I don’t eat much meat.
the kale, sweet potato, and bean combo sounds really good!
I LOVE sweet potato and bean soup. The addition of kale sounds really tasty. Thanks for the recipe :).
Do you think this can be done in the crockpot? I am going to try! Easy peasy!
Looks really good Bobbi!
I love making Kale soups on cold days, good way to get nutrients into the body and keep warm too. Never tried it with sweet potatoes but I will remember that for next time.
@ Anne – Yes you can do it in a crock pot, low heat with at least 6 hrs of cooktime and you’re golden. Let us know how it turns out!!
Yum this recipe looks great! I just found kale in the supermarket here in Australia so it is very good timing 🙂
I’m so sad that you’ve ended up with such a miserable time of year here – that soup would be perfect for warming up!
I think this is the first time my mouth got watery looking at kale.
I love kale and sweet potatoes, this sounds like a great soup!
This looks like a superfood masterpiece! When I’m feeling well enough to cook again, I will have to try it out!
Oh, wow! Sounds and looks delicious!
I have never tried kale. I need to though I’ve heard great things! I’m not a big fan of beans though!
Mmm the thought of a soup full of sweet potato makes my mouth water! Delicious!
Looks yummy!

This sounds easy and delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Looks amazing! I must try it asap!
