White Bean, Kale and Chicken Sausage Soup
Ingredients:
4 Chicken Sausage Links (I like the Al Fresco), cut into 1 inch bites
2 Yellow onions, sliced thin
1 Package of shredded carrots
2 Cans, White Beans, drained and rinsed
2 Garlic cloves, minced
1 Head of Kale, rinsed, dried, and cut into small pieces
1 42 oz. Box of Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
12 oz. Water
1/2 t. Smoked Paprika
1/2 t. Cumin
Salt
Pepper
Directions:
Heat a Dutch Oven over medium/high heat with just 1/4 cup of water. Once the water is hot, add in the chicken sausage and brown (around 10 minutes). After the chicken sausage is browned, add in the onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook the onions for about 10 more minutes until they are soft. Add in garlic, cumin and paprika and cook for 2 more minutes.
Add in the broth, beans, carrots, and water and stir. Cover and cook on low for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add in the kale and cook covered for another 15 minutes.
