Ingredients
- 6 strips bacon chopped
- 1 ½ pound Italian sausage casings removed if applicable
- 1 onion chopped
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 4 cups water
- 5 medium red potatoes cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 1 small bunch kale stems removed and leaves chopped
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon for a few minutes
- until it starts to render fat but isn't fully crispy. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it into
- pieces, and continue cooking until both the bacon and sausage are crispy. Drain some of the
- grease, but leave a little in the pot for flavor.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced
- garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and water. Add the red potatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and
- pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes are tender,
- about 15-20 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream and chopped kale. Let the soup simmer for another 5-10 minutes,
- until the kale is wilted.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Ladle into bowls and enjoy!
