• 1 cup cubed ham
• 1/2 cup finely diced celery
• 1 cup water
• 2 (10oz) cans chicken broth
• 2 (19oz) can black beans,
• washed
• 1/2 cup tiny diced carrot

Preparation

Step 1

In large pot combine all ingredients except kale. Reduce heat and allow soup to gently simmer for approximately 2 hours stirring occasionally. The closer to 2 hours this soup cooks the better it tastes.

Step 2

When serving - put a bunch of kale in the bottom of the bowl and put soup over the top of it. Can add some cut cilantro on top.
