Kale and White Bean Soup

 I was feeling guilty for not using the kale after a few days. I had 6 bunches in the fridge. The forecast was rain so I thought, let's make soup. So I rinsed the kale and chopped the leaves and stems and added them to my instant pot. I had just presoaked Great Northern beans for an hour after boiling for a few minutes. I didn't realize the white beans cook fast without this step. Then I chopped a whole bunch of celery. I added two trays of frozen spicy Italian sausages and 3 cubes of bullion and water and cooked it all for 20 minutes in the instant pot. Then I added olive oil and Adobo and Chianti and it was perfect. I had to use ice water in a sink of water to rapidly cool the vat of soup so I could safely refrigerate it.
