Paleo Creamy Dreamy Sausage and Kale Soup

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe
Sausage and Kale soup in a bowl

One of my most favorite things at Olive Garden is there Zuppa Toscana that hits some serious spots every single time! I knew it was my mission in life to come up with a Paleo version that would be even better!

I’m happy to announce I achieved this goal. I used coconut cream to get a gorgeous velvety texture and used some italian sausage and bacon to make this meaty and delicious. The kale adds some nice texture and flavor and this soup will have you coming back for more and more.

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I did! Let’s get to cooking!

Description

Super creamy and delicious soup filled with Sausage, Kale, Potatoes, and deliciousness. Slurp it up and smile while enjoying this savory bowl of happiness in soup form.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 36 oz chicken broth
  • 8 oz unsweetened full fat coconut milk (or coconut cream)
  • 4 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1 lb italian sausage, casing removed
  • 2 large russet potatoes, peeled, halved, then thinly sliced
  • 4 cups packed kale, stems removed and chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 small sweet onion, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tsp arrowroot starch plus 1 tbsp of water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flake
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large soup pot or dutch oven, heat on medium and once hot add in the bacon and cook until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep the fat in there. Set aside.
  2. Add in the sausage and cook, breaking it up into little pieces and sautéing. Once browned, add in the carrots and onion.  Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the carrots have softened.
  3. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.  Sauté for 1 minute. Add the potatoes, chicken broth, and water.  Stir to combine.  Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the arrowroot starch with a tbsp of water and stir to make a slurry.  Pour into the soup and stir for 1-2 minutes, or until the soup thickens a bit.
  5. Add the kale and the cooked bacon to the soup and simmer for a few minutes.  Add the coconut milk and stir to combine.  Let this simmer for a few more minutes then serve.

Notes

  • Could grate some Parmesan cheese on top to give this a little ISH.
  • Use some spicy italian sausage if you want to up the heat level on the soup.

Beefy 5 Layer Taco Dip Recipe 🌮 🥑 

So pumped March Madness is finally here!  @goodfoods and I partnered up to kick off the tournament with a super tasty dip recipe!  This will definitely be a party favorite.  Recipe is below and good luck to your teams playing!

RECIPE:

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 medium sweet onion, diced
1 LG vine ripened tomato, seeds removed and diced
1 can sliced black olives
LG @goodfoods Chunky Guacamole Container
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
8 oz sour cream
taco seasoning packet
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
arrowroot slurry (1 tsp arrowroot + 1 tsp water combined)

STEPS

Start off by preparing the ground beef taco mixture.  Saute the diced onion in some oil for 3-5 minutes.  Add in the ground beef and break up into small chunks.  Cook until browned.  Add in the 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper.  Mix up then add in the chicken broth and saute for a few minutes.  Let this reduce a bit then drop the heat to low.  Add in the slurry and stir until it begins to thicken.  Drop the heat to a simmer and pull from the heat and add to a bowl once the liquid is gone.  Let this cool off for a bit.

Add 1 cup of sour cream to a bowl and mix in the taco seasoning packet until combined.

Grab a medium sized bowl or casserole dish and scoop the ground beef for the first layer.  Depending how big your bowl or dish is, scoop only the amount needed to create a nice layer.  Now do a layer of the sour cream mixture.  Now do a nice layer of the good foods chunky guacamole.  Sprinkle on the cheese then top with the tomato and black olives.  Serve with your favorite tortilla chips or make a taco salad bowl with it!

Random thought of the day…. Fried Brussels Sprouts are 100% worth all the gas. Do you agree?

They are also one of the easiest things to make! I like to cut the ends off then I quarter them. Save those outer leaves to fry as well. Add a pot with 1 cup Avocado oil and heat to 325. Fry them for a few minutes on each side until they start to brown. Add them to a wire rack to drain the oil then add them to a bowl and season with some salt, pepper, and garlic powder. I also made a pomegranate maple reduction that paired beautifully with these! All I did was boiled down some pomegranate juice, a few tbsp of maple syrup, and a splash of rice wine vinegar until it turned into a nice glaze consistency.

Hope you guys enjoy!

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SHRIMP 🍤 

I had some leftover prosciutto from Thanksgiving so wanted to do something fun with it. I gave this a try and it was a home run! Literally just clean and dry your shrimp then cut prosciutto slices into thirds. Wrap one of the pieces around the shrimp and ensure you overlap the prosciutto and it should stick to itself.

Get a pan on medium heat with a few tbsp of EVOO in there. Add the shrimp and sear for 2-3 min each side depending how big the shrimp are. Top with some fresh cracked pepper and a sprinkle of salt.

I made a spicy mustard dipping sauce to pair it with that consisted of a few scoops of Mayo, drizzle of white wine vinegar, small pour of Calabrian chili oil, some Dijon mustard, and some honey.
