Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Italian sausage mild or spicy, casings removed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil if needed
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 medium potatoes diced
  • 4 cups chicken broth

  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes optional
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese optional garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat and cook sausage until browned, breaking it apart.
  2. Add onion and garlic and sauté 2–3 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in diced potatoes, chicken broth, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 15–20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  5. Stir in heavy cream and kale and cook 3–4 minutes until greens soften.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Ladle into bowls and top with parmesan if desired.

Notes

  • Dice potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate.
  • Add extra broth if you prefer a thinner soup.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat gently.
