It’s definitely soup season, and this escarole soup is new in my rotation. It tastes similar to minestrone, and even though I added plenty of minced garlic in place of the whole cloves, the flavor was subtle. The white beans make it filling and the colors make it pretty – the perfect combination for a winter meal.

How dumb am I???…I first took it as you used minced garlic not whole cloves. Whole cloves the spice not whole cloves of garlic.

KC,This looks just like the soup I made on Sunday. I used one half of a large package of frozen kale in place of the escarole. It was such a wonderful, hearty, meatless meal. I can't wait to have the leftovers.P.S. The eggplant spread is delicious. I've used it on a toasted Arnold thin with LCL garlic & herb and also in place of mayo (w/LCL also, of course) on a ham sandwich.
