Just fabulous soup !! It is quick and healthy and I adored it. I was lucky to have a bag of kale in the fridge - perfect timing. I used tiny baby carrots and also threw in a handful of baby peas. I was nervous that the 2 stock cubes would make this too salty but no, it was perfection. I highly, highly recommend this soup. Made for ZWT 9
