Creamy Sausage Potato Kale Soup

This quick and easy soup recipe is perfect for busy weeknights and makes a big pot of lightly creamy, sausage potato soup with ribbons of kale, and chunks of potato, carrot and parsnips. A bit of cream added to the broth gives the silky broth an added layer of richness without being heavy or thick.
