As planned, we tried out the Crock Bean Soup with Kale for our weekly church potluck, yesterday. First of all, it smelled so fabulous all during church that my mouth was watering. Sometimes a dish smells a lot better than it tastes, but that was not the case yesterday. Those beans and greens were YUMMY!
One reason that I decided to try the recipe for the first time at potluck was that I knew that I had a lot of adults willing to give it a try just in case it wasn’t an especially kid-friendly meal. But, you know, I loved it so much that I don’t really mind if, when I make it next at home, we have a lot of leftovers. More for me!
Also, it was very simple to put together. I just soaked the beans overnight and Joey threw everything in the crock pot when he got up early. The beans were perfectly done by 12:30pm. Yum.
So, if you haven’t already, give this recipe a try!
P.S. Hmm…now that I’m looking at it, I think maybe my title should mention that the verdict is in. In or out, this stuff is good.

It is one of my favorite meals. You can vary the greens, beans and seasonings so each time it is different but still beans and greens. I love it with crusty corn bread. Add meat or not, it is still good.
