No matter the weather, it’s tough not to crave a big bowl of soup (i.e. the culinary equivalent of a bear hug). Enter this hearty, soul-warming veggie rendition. It’s chock-full of goodness—that’s to say carrots, onion, crushed tomatoes, a bevy of Italian herbs and spices, chewy couscous, and tender kale. And because no good brothy bowl is complete without something delicious for dunking, we’re also throwing in a side of toasty, buttery garlic bread. Soup’s on!

Instructions

Prep
1

• Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and dice onion. Trim, peel, and cut carrots into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Remove and discard any large stems from kale.

Rinse shrimp under cold water. Pat shrimp or chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add shrimp or chicken; cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 3-4 minutes for shrimp or 4-6 minutes for chicken. Transfer to a plate.

Cook Veggies
2

• Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrots; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are lightly browned and slightly softened, 4-6 minutes.

Use pot used for shrimp or chicken here.

Start Soup
3

• Stir Italian Seasoning and garlic into pot with veggies. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Add crushed tomatoes, stock concentrates, 3 cups water (6 cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until carrots are just softened, 5-7 minutes.

Finish Soup
4

• Once carrots are just softened, stir in couscous and kale. Cook until couscous is tender and kale is wilted, 8-10 minutes. Taste and season generously with salt and pepper.

Make Garlic Bread
5

• While soup cooks, halve baguette lengthwise. • Place 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until just softened, 10-15 seconds. Stir in half the garlic powder (all for 4) and season with salt and pepper. • Toast baguette halves, then spread cut sides with garlic butter. Halve each piece on a diagonal.

Serve
6

• Divide soup between bowls. Sprinkle with Parmesan and a pinch of chili flakes to taste. Serve with garlic bread on the side.

Stir in shrimp or chicken into soup.

Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
