Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bunch kale, stems removed and chopped
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes

- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
- Grated Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)
Instructions
Now, let’s get this soup simmering! Follow these easy steps:
- In a large pot, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the turkey sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. Brown it for about 5-7 minutes until it’s no longer pink.
- Next, add the chopped onion and sauté for another 3-5 minutes until the onions are translucent. Toss in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and red pepper flakes. Let everything come to a gentle boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat and add your chopped kale. Stir it in and allow it to wilt for about 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you like it spicy, feel free to add more red pepper flakes to kick it up a notch!
- Let the soup simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, allowing all those flavors to marry together beautifully.
- Serve hot, and sprinkle a bit of grated Parmesan cheese on top if desired. Enjoy your hearty bowl of goodness!
