INGREDIENTS
- 1 onion chopped
- 6 carrots chopped
- 6 cloves garlic
- 10ish Italian sausage links, crumbled (I use the ones that come from Costco in the casings & cut the casings off each link)
- 1 bag Kale
- 1-2 boxes Chicken Stock
- 1 big can tomato sauce
- 1 pkg Tortellini
- Salt, pepper, Italian herbs, to taste
- Grated parm cheese as garnish
These are just rough estimates of how much of each ingredient you need. Because it’s soup you really can do as much or a little of each ingredient as you like.
DIRECTIONS
- Chop up the carrots and onions and sauté them in olive oil.
- Once they start softening, you can cut the casings off the Italian sausage and brown the sausage right in with the carrots and onions.
- Season with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs (to taste); add chopped up garlic.
- Once the meat is brown and carrots and onions are soft, add in your bag of kale and cook down slightly.
- Add in the chicken stock and can of tomato sauce.
- Once everything is warm and bubbling, you can add the tortellini in for the last 15 minutes before you serve it.
- Garnish with parm cheese
