Instructions
Prep
1
Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and dice onion. Trim, peel, and cut carrots into Ό-inch-thick rounds. Mince or grate garlic. Remove and discard any large stems from kale.
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.
Start Soup
3
Stir Italian Seasoning and garlic into pot with veggies. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add diced tomatoes, stock concentrates, 3 cups water, and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until carrots are almost softened, 5-7 minutes. 4 SERVINGS: Use 6 cups water.
Finish Soup
4
Stir in couscous and kale. Cook until couscous is tender and kale has wilted, 8-10 minutes. Taste and season generously with salt and pepper.
Make Garlic Bread
5
While soup cooks, halve baguette. Place 2 TBSP butter in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until softened, 10-15 seconds. Stir in ½ tsp garlic powder (be sure to measure we sent more) and season with salt and pepper. Toast baguette halves, then spread cut sides with garlic butter. Halve each piece on a diagonal. 4 SERVINGS: Use 4 TBSP butter and all the garlic powder.
Serve
6
Divide soup between bowls. Sprinkle with Parmesan and a pinch of chili flakes to taste. Serve with garlic bread on the side.
