Directions

  1. Bring 3 cups of broth to a boil, add 1/2 cup of sorghum and allow to boil gently for approximately 20-25 minutes (liquid will remain, that's fine).

  3. Add kale and sriracha, cook until wilted (about 4 minutes).

  4. Take 1/2 cup of white beans and either blend in a blender/small food processor or mash well with the back of a spoon or fork.

  5. Add blended beans, remaining whole beans, canned tomatoes, sorghum/broth mixture and additional 4 cups low sodium chicken broth to kale mixture.

  6. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to simmer for approximately 20 minutes.

  7. Top with grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese (approximately 1 teaspoon per bowl) and serve.
