Italian Sausage Kale Soup Recipe
Description
Italian Sausage Kale Soup Recipe features sausage sliced into rings alongside chopped kale and white beans in a seasoned broth. The preparation begins with caramelizing onions and carrots for sweetness and depth. The sausage can be browned before simmering or added directly for ease. White beans contribute a creamy texture, softened by simmering with a bouillon base for added richness. The kale adds a slight bitterness and leafy texture that balances the sausage's savory flavor.
The soup simmers, melding the ingredients and allowing the kale to soften without losing form. The result is a warming bowl suitable for cooler days or when a nutritious, one-pot meal is desired. It can be served immediately to enjoy its fresh flavors and hearty combination.
Ingredients
- 1 lb sausage
- 1 onion medium
- 1 carrot large
- 16 oz White beans canned
- 1 bunch kale
- 1 tbsp Better Than Bouillon chicken or beef base
- 1 tsp neutral cooking oil for frying, generic cooking oil
- 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
Instructions
- If desired, peel the skin/casing off the sausage. Next, cut it into 1/2-inch rings. Optionally, you can brown the sausage a little in a skillet with oil or simply pop it in the soup as-is.
- Dice the onion ad chop the carrots.
- Preheat a large soup pot with a bit of oil. Caramelize the onions until golden brown. Next, add in the grated carrots.

- Chop the kale into small pieces. Add the sausage and kale to the soup. Let the soup simmer for 5 minutes and remove it from heat.
- Serve the soup immediately and enjoy!
