Rustic sausage and kale soup with white beans features the flavors of sweet italian sausage, creamy white beans, hearty kale, savory onion, garlic and spicy red pepper and is so delicious and complex it’s hard to believe that it can be on the dinner table in less than thirty minutes.
Toast up some crusty bread and add a generous helping of parmesan cheese for a delicious easy meal. Make a big batch and eat it for a few days. The flavors only get better the 2nd day (and 3rd, and 4th).
