In a large soup pot on medium-high heat, heat OLIVE OIL until it shimmers (about 2 minutes).

Stir in TOMATOES, VEGETABLE STOCK, BEANS, SALT, ITALIAN SEASONING, and (optional) CRUSHED RED PEPPER.
Bring the bean soup just to a boil; then lower heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring as needed.
Add KALE to the pot and continue simmering until kale is wilted.Note: you can add kale during the simmering process of the previous step if you prefer.
Option to serve with crusty bread, if desired.
