Hearty Portuguese Kale Soup Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 lb smoked sausage - sliced 1/2 thick
1 qt chicken broth
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 medium potatoes, sliced
1 large bunch (abt. 1 lb.) kale - shredded, or - sliced very
1 freshly ground black pepper
1 salt (opt'l.)
Recipe Preparation
Heat oil in a skillet; saute the sausage just until the fat is
rendered, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and reserve.
Bring broth to a boil with the onions and potatoes; simmer 10 to 15
minutes until potatoes are very tender. Mash onions and potatoes in
the broth with a potato masher or slotted spoon. Add drained sausage
slices and the kale. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 3 to 5
minutes, until kale is tender. Taste for seasoning - depending on how
spicy your sausage is, add salt and pepper to taste. Serve piping
hot.
Shepherd writes: "For a cold night, serve with a warm crusty bread
and good beer or red wine for a complete meal."

* It is possible to make wonderful smoothies by using reduced carb yogurt. Ok, well, you can't really call it cooking, but if you really love smoothies you can throw them together with low carb yogurt and fruit. Of course, you should ensure you use fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use the whole fruit as the fiber will help.
