Ingredients
(links below are the gluten free & celiac safe products I used in this recipe)
- 1 pound ground mild Italian sausage
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 heaping cups diced russet potatoes
- 3 heaping cups finely chopped cauliflower florets
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk you like)
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cups chopped kale (stems removed)
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, if you like spicy)
Instructions
step 1
Place large dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, using a wooden spoon to break into small pieces, until cooked through. Remove sausage from the pot and transfer to a plate with paper towels to drain. Set aside.
step 2
In the same pot, add onion, garlic, potatoes, and cauliflower. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes or until onion begins to soften. Add the chicken stock, almond milk, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered until potatoes are fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
step 3
Remove 3 cups of the mixture from the pot and add to a blender. Blend until completely smooth, then transfer puree back to the pot. Stir in cooked sausage and kale. Allow soup to simmer for 5 to 10 minutes or until kale is wilted. Taste and season with kosher salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if necessary. Garnish with grated parmesan cheese, if desired.
