Incredible! One of my staple meals i have on rotation now in the colder months. Perfect with butternut squash and kidney or butter beans, so good!

In reply to kendall. Hi Kendall, I'm vegetarian so I don't cook with meat, but you could add a cup or two if you like.

Can chicken be added to this? And if so how much?

I add a green banana – amazing. Just boil it first.

This recipe is missing the sweet potatoes that are in Cookie and Kate’s cookbook!!
When I make this, I add about a cup more broth, some cinnamon, and of course, the sweet potatoes!! Everyone loves it!

In reply to Autumn C.. Hi Autumn, yes you can substitute spinach, but it will just need less cooking time as it is a more delicate green.

Can I use spinach in place of kale or collard green?

I make this often — it’s delicious and nutritious. I add sweet potatoes and use collards, or kale if collards aren’t in season, and I like to serve it with brown rice. I like to add chickpeas but b/c I also freeze this soup sometimes (I have a small household) and don’t want to freeze it with chickpeas in it, I’ve begun buying roasted chickpeas (sold in bulk at Winco) to throw on top instead. They add a nice crouton effect, along with the crunch from the peanuts and cilantro garnish. (You can also roast your own canned chickpeas, of course.) Thanks for making this big bowl of complex flavors easy to prep!

Yummmm . I made it tonight… followed recipe exact. Did not have sriracha. I added heaping tablespoon of sweet and spicy chili crisp and added a couple drops (Drops!) of rice vinegar. It was delicious. I’m going to try to freeze some. We’ll see. This would be phenomenal on a cold snowy day.
