Ribollita is a classic Tuscan soup, which literally means "reheated" or "boiled again," as it is usually at its best the next day when it is reheated. It contains white beans, savoy cabbage, and stale bread, which makes the soup thick and filling, suitable for a standalone meal.

A classic Tuscan Ribollita soup recipe made with seasonal vegetables, creamy white beans and kale then thickened with chunks of garlic bruschetta instead of the more traditional stale bread. It’s best made ahead a day or two so the deep flavors get a chance to marry before reheating into a delicious meatless pot of goodness.

Leave it to Italians to find the ultimate soup that warms you up, and makes excellent use of leftovers. A classic example of the simple and flavorful cucina povera* (poor cooking), this "re-boiled" soup uses day-old bread and a wide array of seasonal produce (think: swiss chard, leeks, carrots, or whatever you hav in your fridge). As the flavors blend, this soup only gets tastier over a couple of days, making it the perfect weekday or weekend dinner(s)!
