This stew is very versatile. You can add or remove vegetables depending on what you have on hand. I also like to add a bit of spice to mine with a pinch of cayenne pepper.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover kale. I always have a bunch of kale in my fridge that I don't know what to do with, but this stew is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but this stew changed my mind. The kale was cooked perfectly and had a wonderful flavor. The beans were also very creamy and flavorful.
