Sausage Potato and Kale Soup
Heat oil in large dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat and brown the Italian sausage. Add onions, garlic and spices cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the broth and bay leaf.
Bring to a boil and add the red potatoes and cook until the potatoes are tender about 10 minutes.
I used baby kale. You can use any kale you like or even spinach.
The spice level is up to you. I used mild sausage and added a 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. But you can certainly use spicy sausage.
