Made some stuff that needed to get eaten tonight, and made the following and it is fucking BOMB. I keep meaning to make @whit's October soup so I've got soup on the brain!! But I made this cuz it's what we had!!!!

Edit: Includes kale, meatballs, beans, onion, garlic, broth, marsala, and provolone. Recipe below the cut:


  • Bunch kale, chopped and lightly salted/mixed up
  • Beans in broth (maybe 2c? I had some alubia blancas with oregano that I made for Erika for while I was gone)
  • 16oz pre cooked chicken meatballs, these were TJs
  • Garlic, a tablespoon or two, ~minced (we use jar garlic)
  • 1/2 an onion, chopped
  • Red wine for cooking
  • Better than bouillon or whatever broth you have
  • Provolone
  1. Use a good stock pot:
  2. Halve and sear and salt chicken meatballs, remove
  3. Fry chopped onions in the same pot. A little salt here too. Let em fry for a while on highish, til some sides are browned. Don't stir too much. Maybe 5m this part.
  4. Add a big lump of garlic. I used the jar stuff ("jar gar" around our house). It will scream a little
  5. After maybe 45-60 seconds of that, dump a glug of the cooking wine in there. It will scream more! Scrape up all the stuff. Leave it all in there.
  6. Add 6c broth and the beans. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10m.
  7. Put chopped kale and the meatballs back in, cook another minute or so - doesn't need much time.
  8. Turn the heat off and add another dash of acid: either more cooking wine or a hearty squeeze of any citrus (less if it's from a jar).
  9. Serve, and after plating (bowling? 🎳) , put a slice of provolone on top!!!! Watch it melt! Then you eat it!!!!!!!

Makes like... 3.5 servings? Another bunch of kale and another 2c of broth would be solidly 4 servings. As it was, we ate all the kale in the first two bowls because one bunch of kale ain't no more than two servings!!

Sorry no pics, I ate it too fast :eggbug-pensive:
