Notes and Variations

You can enrich the soup with pasta, adding 2.8-3.2 oz of short durum wheat pasta and letting it cook in the broth.

You can omit the bacon, or replace it with speck, smoked ham, or browned sausage.

The kale can also be blanched in water before adding it to the soup. However, I recommend passing it directly in the pan as it will be more flavorful this way.

If you want a thicker soup, you can blend part of the pumpkin and chickpeas.
