A healthy, rustic, and delicious soup packed with all of my favorite Italian flavors! Ribollita is thickened with crusty bread and filled with tasty veggies and herbs.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 3 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery ribs, chopped
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 28 oz crushed San Marzano tomatoes
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 parmesan rind, about 4-inch size
- 15 oz canned cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
- Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 small bunch Tuscan kale, ribs and stems removed, chopped
- 2 cups cubed crusty Italian bread, day old or stale
- Grated Parmesan cheese, extra bread cubes, and fresh basil, for serving, optional
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook for 5 minutes or until vegetables are softened. Stir in the garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, cook for 2 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, broth, thyme, basil, rosemary, bay leaf, Parmesan rind, and beans. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Stir until combined.
- Simmer the soup with the lid slightly ajar for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are softened. Remove the lid and stir in the kale.
- Add the bread and simmer for 5 minutes or until the bread starts to dissolve into the soup and the soup thickens.
- Remove the thyme sprigs, bay leaf, and Parmesan rind. Discard. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and top with Parmesan cheese, extra bread cubes, and fresh basil, if desired.
Notes
- If you don't have day old bread or stale bread, you can dry it out in the oven. See tips on the post. This is a thick soup. If you prefer more liquid, you can add more vegetable broth.
