Recipe Notes
- You can buy bulk Italian sausage, but if you can't find it, just remove the casings from the links and crumble.
- You don't have to use a fancy white wine here. Just make sure it's good enough that you want to drink a glass of what's leftover!
- Store the soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
Here's how you make it:
- Crumble the sausage and cook in a large soup pot until browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add the onion to the sausage drippings and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook 1 more minute, stirring.
- Add the white wine and stir thoroughly.
- Add the potato, kale, chicken broth, water and cooked sausage to the pot.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer about 20 minutes or until potatoes are just tender.
- Stir in heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.

I'm trying yo eat healthier, so I used lean hot Italian turkey sausage and half & half instead of heavy whipping cream. I also used more chicken broth (reduced sodium). Still absolutely delicious!
