I seem to be one of those people who never gets tired of soup. Now that the weather is getting warmer I know it won’t be long before hot soup is off the menu. Until it’s just too hot, I’m fitting it in as often as I can. This simple soup is one of my favorites, and is similar to the Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana.<\/p>\n
Kale and Sausage Soup<\/strong><\/p>\n 1 lb good quality bulk Italian Sausage In a large pan or stockpot, saute sausage and bacon for a few minutes, until bacon is cooked and the sausage has lost most of its pinkness. Add the onion and garlic and cook a few minutes more, until onion is translucent and the meats are cooked through.<\/p>\n Add stock and potatoes and simmer for about 20-30 minutes, or until potatoes are soft.<\/p>\n Add cream and kale, and heat until warmed through. Serve topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese, and a loaf of crusty homemade bread<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I seem to be one of those people who never gets tired of soup.
