Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat, then add the chicken sausage and cook until it's golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove it and set it aside.
  • Add a little more oil to the pot, then add the carrots, zucchini and onion and sauté for 5-6 minutes until soft, then add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  • Next, add the Italian seasoning, salt, red pepper flakes, diced tomatoes, beans, chicken broth, and parmesan rind. Bring soup to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and simmer it for 10 minutes.
  • Add the kale and lemon juice, along with the chicken sausage, and stir until the kale is wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!

*If you don't want to buy pre-cooked chicken sausage (like I did), you can buy chicken sausage from behind the meat counter, remove the casing and cook it with a wooden spoon, breaking it up as you go
*Storage:
  • Refrigerator: Store in a sealed container for up to 4 days
  • Freezer: Store soup in a freezer-safe bag for up to 4 months; thaw in the refrigerator overnight
