Tomato Minestrone Soup

• 2 cups low sodium veggie broth
• 1/4 cup peeled and chopped vidalia onion
• 1/8 cup chopped celery
• 1/2 cup peeled and diced sweet potatoes
• 1 cup drained and chopped canned plum tomatoes
• 2 tbsp chopped basil
• 1 tbsp chopped parsley
• 1 tbsp chopped chives
• 1 cup steamed fresh spinach
• 1 cup chopped and steamed fresh kale
• fresh cracked pepper
• cayenne pepper

1. In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of the stock with the onion, celery, and sweet potatoes. Sweat the veggies for 8 minutes over medium heat, stirring. The Stock will reduce and the veggies will start browning. Then add the tomatoes and the rest of the stock, simmering until the veggies are soft. Add the basil, parsley, chives, spinach, and kale, and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with black pepper and a pinch of cayenne, and serve.
