Slow Cooker Zuppa Toscana (Copycat)

One of my favorite recipes, Slow Cooker Zuppa Toscana, is a family favorite.  It’s one of those WOW dishes that when you serve it, people cannot believe YOU made it!  Note: I’ve used link or crumbled sausage, it really depends on your preference.  They will both add flavor and great texture to the soup. Enjoy this as a main dish or a starter.

1. Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink.
2. Place cooked sausage, chicken broth, water, garlic, potatoes and onion in a 6-Quart slow cooker.
3. Cover & Crock on High for 3-4 hours until potatoes are cooked and soft.
4. Optional: Mash the potatoes a bit with a potato masher for texture.
5. Turn the slow cooker off and add the kale.
6. Return the lid and let sit for 5 minutes.
7. Stir in whipping cream and serve.

NOTE: If you are adding bacon, you can also fry 5 strips of bacon crisp, drain on paper towel and crumble when adding to the soup. (I made it this way because I didn’t have bacon bits) YUM!

Happy Crocking!
