How to Make Italian Sausage Soup
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place 1 lb Italian sausage in a baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Remove sausage from oven, let cool slightly, then slice into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
- In a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, sauté 1 large onion, chopped, in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Add 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cubed, 6 cups chicken broth, 2 cups water, and 4 cloves garlic, minced. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
- Stir in the cooked sausage and 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Reduce heat to low. Add 1 bunch (about 10 oz) of kale, chopped, and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Heat through, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until kale is wilted and cream is heated through. Do not boil.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
