- Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, potato, squash and a generous pinch of salt and pepper and sauté for 4-5 minutes. If omitting beans in a whole 30/paleo diet, add 2 cups of extra veggies (like chopped carrots, sweet potatoes, or winter squash) now.
- Add kale and sauté until wilted. Add the whole can of diced tomatoes, beans, broth, bay leaves, and herbs/spices. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 5-6 minutes, until potatoes/squash have softened. Season with additional salt and pepper, as needed. Serve warm with fresh parsley sprinkled on top.
