Butternut Squash White Beans and Black Kale Soup

I have written before about my love of the combination of beans and kale in a spicy chorizo soup.
With more kale in the vegebox this lovely soup is a great vegeterian option, you could use potato instead of butternut squash , iI just thought it would be a pretty colour combination . It thickens itself from the beans and squash and you just get some really nice textures from the vegetables .
