Zuppa Toscana Anyone?


2 cups of fresh kale.


The kale joins 2 3/4 cups chicken stock or broth and 1/4 cup heavy cream, as well as a medium Russet potato sliced into quarter inch thick slices that have been quartered (resulting in pie-shaped pieces). Everything is added to a heavy pot over medium heat.


Approximately 1/2 lb of hot, Italian sausage. When cooked and sliced, it joins the mix. I would recommend blotting it with a paper towel, otherwise it will exude all its grease into your soup.


Add salt and hot pepper flakes, and let the soup simmer for approximately 2 hours. One hour will probably suffice.



The finished product!

you could substitute the heavy cream with something else though!
