2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 stalks celery, diced
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 can (15 ounces) whole tomatoes, chopped (juice reserved)
1/2 pound small red potatoes, scrubbed and diced
1 can (15 ounces) white beans, drained and rinsed
1 bunch kale (1 pound), stems removed and leaves torn into small pieces

Steps:

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery and season with salt. Cook vegetables, stirring, until tender, about 8 minutes.
Increase heat to medium high and add tomatoes and their juice. Cook, stirring, until mixture begins to caramelize, about 3 minutes.
