Spicy, savory Italian sausage, earthy kale, sweet caramelized onions, and creamy potatoes combine with chicken stock and a sprinkling of parmesan and black pepper to create the perfect cold-weather soup.
You could use pre-made Italian sausage to make this soup, but it’s more economical and more fun to make your own! The added bonus is the ability to adjust the flavors however you see fit - maybe you want more fennel, less heat, more garlic, or more black pepper in your own custom sausage. This soup recipe uses only half a pound of the sausage - the rest freezes beautifully for another batch, or you can sauté it and put it on pizza, in pasta, or anywhere else you might want a kick of savory spice.
