Creamy Sausage and Potato Soup with Kale
Ingredients:
8 oz. Italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
4 potatoes, peeled and cubed into bite-sized pieces
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
1 cup bacon, cooked until very crisp and finely chopped
1 container (16 oz) mushrooms, sautéed in butter or olive oil, then finely chopped
1 cup kale, cleaned, chopped, and with the stems removed (you can substitute spinach or omit it altogether)
2 cups heavy cream
32 oz chicken broth
2 tablespoons flour
Directions:
1. Prepare the Crock Pot: In your Crock Pot, combine the cooked sausage, cubed potatoes, chicken broth, and diced tomatoes. Add just enough water to cover the ingredients, but only if needed.
2. Cook the Soup Base: Set the Crock Pot to high and cook for 3-4 hours until the potatoes are tender.
3. Prepare the Cream Mixture: While the soup is cooking, whisk the flour into the heavy cream until smooth and lump-free. Finely chop the sautéed mushrooms and kale.
4. Finish the Soup: After the initial cooking time, stir the cream mixture, chopped kale, mushrooms, and bacon into the soup. Continue cooking on high for another 30-45 minutes until the soup thickens slightly and the flavors meld together.
5. Serve: Once done, sprinkle the soup with freshly grated Parmesan, additional bacon bits, and chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
