zuppa toscana

this is a recipe i found on the internet that is of the olive garden recipe for zuppa toscana. it is super good.

ingredients:
1 lb of ground italian sausage
1 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 large white onion chopped
4 Tbsp bacon pieces
3-4 cloves garlic chopped
8-9 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 lb sliced russet potatoes
1/4 bunch of kale

directions:
1. Saute Italian sausage and crushed red pepper flakes in a pot. Drain excess fat and set aside.

2. In the same pan, saute bacon, onions and garlic for about 10-15 minutes or until the onions are tender.
3. Mix together the chicken broth and onion mixture and bring to a boil.
4. Add the potatoes and cook until soft, about 30 minutes.

5. Add the heavy cream and cook until thoroughly heated. Stir in sausage.
6. Add the kale just before serving.

This is a soup that has a little bit of heat in it. I am not a big fan of greens but the kale in this is sooo yummy!
