Chicken, Kale and White Bean Stew

Comfort food needn’t be heavy and unhealthy. It can be filling and nutritious like this chicken, kale and white bean stew. I love the earthiness of kale, which adds its own flavor to this stew. Plus, it makes a nice change from spinach, which tends to be my default green. As for the white beans, I like to use cannellini beans, but navy beans would be just fine.
