New Chef joins Every-Day-Is-A-Banquet

I would love to share some things with you and your blog. I have a couple of favorites that I enjoy making when the days are short and the nights are cold. The first is a simple, humble, and very tasty soup. It is a potato soup, with spicy sausage, bacon, onion and kale. Just the thing to knock off the chill from a day of cheering on your favorite football team. Just make sure you have an end table close by. You will need a place to set your bowl down as you fall asleep for an after dinner nap. Do not be bothered with taking you bowl to the sink, you will need it again as soon as you wake up. The recipe follows:

1 lb Italian sausage (spicy)
2 large russet baking potatoes, sliced in half, and then in 1/4 inch slices
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 lb of bacon
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups kale or Swiss chard, chopped
4 cans chicken broth
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Brown the sausage and bacon until cooked through, drain and set aside

In a croc pot set to low add the sausage, potatoes, onion, bacon, garlic, and chicken broth,.
Allow to cook until the potatoes are tender, add the whipping cream and stir in the kale just before serving.

Enjoy.
