Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams lean turkey sausage
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1500 milliliters low-sodium chicken broth
- 3 medium, peeled and sliced thinly russet potatoes
- 100 grams, chopped kale
- 400 milliliters light coconut milk
- 0.5 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Remove the turkey sausage from its casing and add it to the pot. Cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula, until browned.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Add the sliced potatoes to the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potato slices are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Add the chopped kale to the pot and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until it softens.
Stir in the light coconut milk and season with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Let the soup warm through for 2-3 minutes, but do not let it boil.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot. Enjoy your low-fat Toscana soup!
