Kale Soup Recipes

Total Time: 1

Yield: 6-8

Ingredients:

• 1 lb sausage, chopped (I used chicken sausage)
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 carrots, sliced
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 4 Yukon Gold potatoes, diced
• 1 bunch kale, chopped (substitute chard or spinach, if you like)
• 4 cups chicken broth
• Salt, pepper, chili powder and Italian seasoning to taste

Steps:

1. Sauté onions in oil for a couple of minutes, then add in garlic and mushrooms.
2. When the onions start to look softened, add in sausage, carrots and potatoes, broth and seasonings.
3. Bring to just a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes, until potatoes and carrots are cooked.
   
4. Add kale and cook for about 5 minutes more before serving. Parmesan cheese would be a great garnish.

Last week I made the best soup ever using kale, water, turkey, and chicken bouillon cubes. The only thing I measured was the water, 6 cups, and the cubes, 7. I measured neither the kale or the turkey. Simmered it for awhile. I used Redbor kale and just chopped it up raw. The turkey was scavenged off a carcass. It was one of the best soups I've ever eaten and I had my doubts about it before I made it. I served it with cornbread. Yummy!
