Note: Depending on pot size, it's probably easy to make this in 2 pots or halve the recipe.

1. In a large pot, add 1 Tbsp olive oil, 2 large onions (chopped), 1 large shallot (chopped), 3 Tbsp minced garlic, 1/2 bunch basil leaves (chopped, stems removed), 1/2 bunch parsley (chopped) at medium heat. Saute until veggies are coated and softening, about 4 minutes.

2. Add 5 large potatoes (chopped), 3 medium carrots (chopped), 3 narrow bunches celery (chopped, leaves included), 3 medium tomatoes (chopped) to the pot. Stir frequently for 3 minutes.

3. Add 3 cartons of veggie or chicken broth and raise to high heat. Bring to a boil.

4. Add 6 cups water, 1 jar cannellini beans, 3 small cans mushrooms with liquid, 1 package frozen peas, and herbs (rosemary, thyme, dried parsley, dried basil, red chili flakes, salt to taste), and bring back to a boil.

5. Once boiling, reduce to low heat. Add 1 head frisee, 2 cups baby spinach, and 5 medium kale leaves. Cook until greens are tender.

Serve on its own or with pasta.
