This Thai Kale Soup is an absolute favorite of mine and I’m so excited to be finally sharing the recipe with all of you!! I’d pick it over just about any other homemade meal and I’d always have seconds if not thirds!
My mouth is watering just thinking about the flavors this soup contains. The heat is perfectly balanced with the creamy broth and the hearty vegetables make it the most satisfying meal. The flavors are incredible and absolutely addicting! Not to mention, it’s packed with kale which means it’s also packed to the max with nutrients and antioxidants!
This beautiful soup is a must! If you end up trying it out, I would love to hear about it! Tag @bunnysbite and share with me on Instagram and Facebook! (:
