Spicy Sausage and Kale Sweet Potato Soup
The other night I was in the mood for soup, but wanted to make something easy, delicious and from scratch. I also wanted to make something hearty, healthy and used what I already had on hand. So I went down the Pinterest rabbit hole trying to find something that looked delicious, inspiring and could be easily adjusted based on the ingredients I had and I came across this soup and thought…perfect! It looked delicious, easy and I knew I could make my adjustments and still capture the flavor of the original recipe.
And let me tell you, this soup was bomb! It was sweet, spicy and so delicious. I made a lot of ingredient changes, but seriously, this was one of the best soups I have ever made and it only took about 30-minutes from start to finish.
Here is what I did!
Ingredients:
1 packages spicy chicken sausage, sliced into thin dollars
1 package chopped frozen spinach
1 large onion, rough chopped
Spoonful of fresh, minced garlic
4 cups of beef bone broth
4 cups water
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
1 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp chilli powder
1 tsp cayenne
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp Avocado Oil
Directions:
Cut up sausage, onion and sweet potatoes to get ready for use. Brown the sausage for added flavor and texture.
Add avocado oil to dutch oven over medium heat. Add in chopped onion and sweat until translucent.
Add in garlic and cook for a minute.
Add in bone broth, water and sweet potatoes and cook until sweet potatoes are tender.
Once tender, blend slowly with the immersion blender.
Optional: If you don’t want a grainy soup, strain to make smoother.
Add spices, kale and sausage, bring to a boil and then put lid on and simmer until ready to eat.
Soup make about 4-6 servings. A great meal prep soup!
Seriously, this soup was so good and super easy to make. It has the husband stamp of approval!
