15 Minute Sausage Kale Soup {Low-Carb & Primal}
 Quick, healthy and delicious my My 15 Minute Sausage Kale Soup is the perfect comfort food for a chilly winter day.
Today is a typical lazy winter-Saturday at our house. We skipped breakfast and set our sights on an early lunch instead.
We quickly tossed together my My 15 Minute Sausage Kale Soup, using ingredients we already had on hand.
And I have BIG NEWS: I even took a video of it for you too!
I guess despite the slow start, I haven’t been too lazy 😛
What do you think about my video?? Do you love it? or hate it??
Should I do more of these cute little videos?
I honestly am so tired after a marathon of research, cooking, recording and editing that I can’t find anything else whitty to say about this recipe other than it’s delicious, try it. You can thank me later.
Now it’s time for a well deserved glass of wine to celebrate my video success. Cheers!

This soup was a big hit with my hubby and son! It was delicious! It’s going in the rotation for sure 🙂
I made this for dinner tonight and wow. It’s that tasty. The flavor was intense, full-bodied and hearty. I will definitely make this again. NOTE: I did not have cream and made no substitution. Chicken sausage on hand (no one even knows what that is… it’s up there with turkey bacon…which part of a turkey does ‘turkey’ bacon come from?!). Thanks for the recipe gal.
I knew any recipe starting with cooking sausage in bacon grease would be a winner! 🙂 I happened to have all the ingredients on hand, so made it yesterday. Delicious! And even better on day two after the ingredients have had time to “mingle”. Very filling and satisfying. Thanks so much for the recipe!
