Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground Italian sausage (sugar-free)
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups chicken broth (unsweetened)
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 4 cups kale, chopped (stems removed)
- 2 large white sweet potato, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Add the ground Italian sausage to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Remove the sausage and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
Add the chopped onion to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Add the diced white sweet potatoes, sea salt, and black pepper. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the coconut milk. Add the cooked sausage back to the pot, along with the chopped kale and crushed red pepper flakes.
Simmer the soup for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the kale to wilt and the flavors to meld together.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot and enjoy your Paleo Toscana soup!
