This hearty kale soup is a comforting, nourishing bowl of goodness. Blending earthy greens with sweet potatoes and savory dried tomatoes. The depth of flavor comes not only from the fragrant herbs – oregano, thyme, and rosemary – but also from the unexpected touch of Medjoul dates. These naturally sweet fruits add a velvety smoothness and a surprising twist to the soup, balancing the savory elements with a gentle, caramellike sweetness.

What kind of dried tomatoes

For Medical Medium its important to look for tomatoes with no additives, especially no citric acid. And because this soup is completely fatfree it’s important to use drie tomatoes and not tomatoes in oil. That said, a lot of dried tomatoes contain salt. I personally still eat salt and I like it in this soup. Recommended are these acid and oilfree tomatoes and these (also) saltfree tomatoes.
