Is this a soup?
No, it really is a stew. By definition, a stew contains ingredients "stewed" in just enough liquid to be simmered for a period of time. It tends to be heartier than a soup. Whereas soup is primarily liquid, such as stock, combined with other ingredients such as vegetables or meat.
No meat... why so much protein?
Beans are protein-packed powerhouses. This is why each serving of our Kale and White Bean Stew contains 16g of protein, or 32g for an entire double serving. Not only that, but when you add potatoes and beans together, they form what is known as a complete protein, allowing a vegan dish to have the essential amino acids found in animal protein.

Absolutely delicious and hearty. On a recent camping trip, in Florida, during a cool rainy week, it was a great dinner option. Awesome stuff.
I don't like kale. I don't eat kale. I decided to be adventurous and try this stew. It was superb. I don't know how chef Jen does it, but I hope she keeps on doing it.
This was a pleasant surprise. Some of the other meals can be super filling, this one is more hearty stew.
Was pleasantly surprised by the flavor, texture and volume!
I think I will add less water next time because I was so full at the end that I could not finish the broth. It was super nourishing on a cold overnight trip and tasted amazing!
