I love potato soup! Especially when the weather turns and there is a chill in the air. Another reason I love this recipe for Creamy Potato Kale and Sausage Soupis that it is so easy to make. I don’t know about you but I really need easy in my life right now. Autumn brings cooler days but also busier ones and that is another reason why I enjoy making this crock pot soup.
Slow cookers are a homemaker’s best friend and I have to admit I sure do love the flavor that comes from simmering your food for a long period of time. Everything is tender and delicious!
MONEY SAVING TIP Half the amount of meat in this recipe and add a 1/2 cup of root vegetable to the pot. It will still be flavorful and will lower the cost.
This recipe is gluten-free, sugar-free, grain-free, and nut-free! If you wanted to make this recipe dairy-free you could substitute coconut milk for half and half. This delicious soup works well for pot-luck dinners too! Everyone loves the healthy combination of kale, potatoes, sausage, and cream!
