Sausage, Potato and Kale Soup



Flip it!

I have made this soup but not from this EXACT recipe. It’s pretty much the same, except I added a lot more kale. Like the other reviewer, I wouldn’t add the milk/half & half til after the potatoes and kale have cooked. It would curdle and I’m always a clutz on the stove top with boiling (I have a 2 yo, that helps distract me 🙂 Love that I’m getting all the vitamins and yumminess in one bowl! Hubby could have done without the kale, but he also would eat bacon by the pound if he could!

Ingredients

1 pound bulk Italian sausage
4 cups half-and-half
3 cups cubed potatoes
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups whole milk
1 onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups torn kale leaves (bite-size pieces)

Directions

Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Crumble sausage into pot; cook and stir until browned, about 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
Stir half-and-half, potatoes, chicken broth, milk, onion, oregano, and red pepper flakes into sausage, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Season with black pepper; stir kale into soup. Simmer until kale is tender, 10 to 15 more minutes.
