This was fantastic! I followed the recipe and it was great. So far I’ve made it three times since. Once I used those round red potatoes. It was delicious. Another time, I only had 2% milk and regular chicken broth. Still delicious. Last month, I stuffed as much kale as my Dutch oven could handle…still wonderful. This is my absolute favorite recipe. You can add little things or leave as-is and you create a wonderfully, comfort soup. Next time I’ll add a picture. Thanks for sharing!
I subbed hot turkey Italian sausage, omitted the pepper flakes, and used Yukon gold potatoes. These were my only alterations from the recipe. As far as the directions go, my potatoes were done in 15 minutes, and I did not add any milk or half and half until the end of the cooking, when I allowed them to heat through, but not boil. This has an amazing aroma as it cooks, and it is a hearty, satisfying soup. Do not be concerned by the lack of added salt, because the broth and sausage are salty enough to flavor the whole batch. DH and DS approved!
We are on a low carb diet, but I love potato soup. I researched a replacement for the potato, where I still might have the richness of a potato soup in winter. Radishes!!! I know, I was weirded out too. But the bite cooks out of them and they have a very similar consistency of potato. We just scrubbed them and left the skins on. The soup doesn’t turn out quite a thick, but the taste is satisfying and wonderful without all of the carbs! Per 100 grams, radishes have 3.4 carbs compared to 17 carbs in the potato. Try 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.
