- 1 1/2 lbs ground Italian sausage

- 1 c heavy cream or sub milk of your choice, thickened with cornstarch if you like (I like coconut!)
Instructions
- In the bottom of your soup pot, brown your sausage.
- Add onion, garlic and seasoning, stir and let simmer to incorporate flavors.

- Turn heat off, and let cool until no longer bubbling.
- Add in your heavy cream, or non-dairy milk.

Notes
This original soup recipe contains heavy cream- but feel free to substitute a non-dairy milk such as almond or coconut- you can even thicken it up with a bit of cornstarch (just follow the directions on the packaging).
This recipe's instructions are stove top- but you can easily create this dish in your instant pot, too- set to manual on high pressure for 5 minutes. Slow release for 10 minutes.. *** For instant Pot- add kale after the steam release and fold in gently. Heat from soup will wilt the kale.
