Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 1 large onion diced
- 6 lices Bacon diced
- 4 cups potatoes peeled and cut into ½" cubes
- 1 ½ cups kale chopped, or fresh spinach
- 5 cups chicken broth
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.
- Add sausage and onion to the bacon grease and cook until no pink remains. Drain fat.
- Add potatoes, kale, chicken broth, garlic, and crushed peppers (if using) to the pot.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered 12-14 minutes or until potatoes are soft.
- Stir in heavy cream and pepper and let simmer 1 minute. Taste and season with salt & pepper if desired.
- Garnish with bacon.
Notes
- If using spinach in place of kale, add in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- If you'd like a thicker soup, combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Drizzle into the boiling soup while stirring until soup reaches desired consistency. You may not need all of the cornstarch mixture.
- Zuppa Toscana will keep up to 4 days in the fridge and can easily be reheated on the stovetop or in the microwave.
