Simple Kale Soup

CSA: Week 2

8 cups chicken broth - I used veggie broth
1 bunch kale, rinsed and sliced
1 1/2 pounds potatoes, cut into chunks
1 pound diced fully cooked turkey ham - I used regular ham
4 cloves garlic, chopped - I used 3 cloves garlic and added 1/4 onion sauteed in olive oil
freshly ground black pepper to taste

I also decided at the last minute to add 2 cups dried navy beans in hopes of making a heartier soup.

I put it all on to simmer at about 11:30 over lunch.
