Sausage, Potato, and Kale Soup

This rich, belly-filling soup is one of our favorite ways to serve our farm-grown kale. This recipe serves four, but you can double it for a crowd. Serve it up with cracked black pepper and rustic, crunchy bread!

You’ll need:

  • 1lb smoked beef sausage, kielbasa, or andouille sausage, sliced into coins
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 4-6 cloves minced fresh garlic
  • 1 to 2 heaped teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
  • 4 medium potatoes, cubed
  • 32 ounces of no-sodium chicken bone broth
  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream or half & half
  • 4 cups roughly chopped kale
  • lots of fresh ground black pepper to taste

To make:

Bring a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan to medium heat. Add the sliced sausage. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until golden.

Add onion and garlic, stirring and cooking for 5 minutes until onions are translucent and garlic fragrant.

Add 1 heaping teaspoon of smoked paprika, potatoes, and bone broth. 

Place the lid on and cook for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are cooked through and tender enough to easily mash a few with the back of a fork. 

Add the kale and heavy cream, lower the heat, and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the kale wilts.
