This hearty one-pot soup builds deep flavor in layers: ground beef is browned with garlic and Tuscan Heat Spice, then set aside while carrot and shallot soften slowly in the same pot. Chopped kale, cannellini beans, and rich stock concentrate simmer together until everything is tender. A final squeeze of lemon brightens the broth for a satisfying, warming bowl.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Peel and mince garlic. Trim, peel, and cut carrot into a small dice. Halve, peel, and cut shallot into a small dice. Remove and discard any large stems from half the kale (all for 4 servings); chop leaves into bite-size pieces. Drain and rinse beans. Quarter lemon.

Brown Beef
2
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 4-6 minutes (it’ll cook through later). Season with half the Tuscan Heat Spice (you’ll use the rest in the next step), salt, and pepper.

  • Add garlic and cook until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.

  • Transfer beef mixture to a plate.

Cook Veggies
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in same pot over medium heat. Add carrot and shallot; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8-10 minutes. (TIP: If veggies begin to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium low.) Season with remaining Tuscan Heat Spice and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Start Soup
4
  • Stir in chopped kale, stock concentrates, 2½ cups water, and ½ tsp salt. (For 4 servings, use 5 cups water and 1 tsp salt.)

Simmer Soup
5
  • Cover pot, then increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, uncover and stir in beef mixture and beans.

  • Reduce heat to medium low and cover. Continue cooking until beef is cooked through, 5 minutes more.

Finish Soup & Serve
6
  • Stir a big squeeze of lemon juice into soup. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

  • Divide soup between bowls. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
