Serves 6
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Carrots, Diced Very Fine
1 Small Yellow Onion, Diced Very Fine
3 Stalks Celery, Diced Very Fine
8 Red Potatoes, Diced Medium
1 Lb Spicy Chicken Italian Sausage, Casing Removed
1 Tbsp Johnny Pizza Seasoning
1 14.5 Oz Can of Fire Roasted Tomatoes
1 14.5 Oz Can of Cannellini Beans
4 Cups Chicken Broth
2 Cups Water
6 Cups Baby Kale
Preparation:
In a large stock pot heat the oil. Add the carrots, celery, onion and cook until softened—about 8 minutes.
Add the Johnny Pizza and sausage, and sauté until sausage is browned.
Add the tomatoes, beans, stock and water—simmer 20 minutes.
Add the kale to the hot soup a couple of handfuls at a time. It will wilt and shrink. Let the soup simmer another 5 minutes and enjoy!
I served crostini with this which is so simple to make. Rub a slice of bread with olive oil, bake at 400 for 3 minutes, add cheese of choice and continue to bake until cheese is melted.
If you wish you can also add a little shredded parmigiano cheese.
Buon appetito!
