Spicy Kale Soup

Kale Soup

This makes a large batch of soup. Somewhat like borscht, difficult to make a small pot of.


5 mild Italian sausage

5 spicy Italian sausage...chop into little pieces and brown in


3 T olive oil...when browned add


One chopped onion

3 chopped carrots...fry, stirring, until onion is clear


Grate 4-5 garlic cloves, add to pot and stir for a few seconds.


Add

1 carton chicken broth


Fill carton half full with water, swish it around and add.


Peel and dice 5 potatoes and add.


Add one can sliced mushrooms.


One bag frozen chopped kale. Or


Some salt and pepper. Might need more water.


Simmer.


To this I added about 3 cups leftover mashed potato that I had in the fridge.


Simmer in crockpot or low on stove for  two to three hours.

Serve with milk or sour cream.

NOTE When in a hurry or incapacitated by a broken wrist I have added frozen hash browns instead of chopping potatoes. I don't think its quite as good but it does work.
