Ingredients
Scale
1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy based on preference)
4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced into cubes
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream (can substitute with half-and-half for a lighter option)
2 cups kale or spinach, chopped (for a nutrient boost)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnishing)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it into smaller crumbles for even cooking.
Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add in the diced potatoes and pour in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook for about 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the heavy cream and chopped kale or spinach. Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Pair with crusty bread or a light salad.
