Description

A hearty and creamy soup featuring crispy bacon, Italian sausage, potatoes, and kale, perfect for chilly evenings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 large potatoes, diced
  • 2 cups kale, chopped
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside, allowing the fat to remain.
  2. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned.
  3. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  5. Add the diced potatoes, cooking until tender, approximately 10–15 minutes.
  6. Stir in the chopped kale and simmer for a few minutes until wilted.
  7. Add the coconut milk and cooked bacon back into the pot, stirring until heated through.
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, avoid rushing the browning process of the sausage and add coconut milk just before serving.
