Is there really anything better than a delicious, flavorful, creamy soup? Ever since I purchased our Instant Pot a few years back, it has been cooking up a storm in our kitchen, and soup is one of the main features! SO easy for this work-from-home mom of four! It’s so easy even my husband can do it!
This recipe can be made in a stockpot if you don’t have an Instant Pot. I like to use my IP because it cooks those veggies in two minutes. No waiting around for meals in this house. *wink*
This particular soup has so many wonderful health-promoting ingredients and has quickly become a family favorite. It is gut healing, full of vitamins and minerals, high in protein, and deeeelish! I hope your family loves it as much as we do! Who knew they could love kale soup?!
