Kale and sausage stew

January 31, 2011

Been getting random veggies from a local farm delivered and decided to make a stew out of the green kale.

1 lb green kale
1 lb hot italian sausage
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
16 oz of chicken broth
2 medium potatoes cubed
2 parsnips diced
1 chopped onion
2 medium carrots
1 can pinto beans
3 minced garlic cloves & two tablespoons olive oil.
Salt and pepper to flavor.

Brown the sausage, drain and set aside. Sauté the onions, carrots, potatoes, and parsnip to soften with the garlic and olive oil. In a large stock pot mix the broth and condensed cream of chicken and start dumping in the rest of the ingredients except the beans and kale. Add just enough water to make sure everything is covered and bring it to a boil. After boiling for a minute reduce to a simmer. Add the beans and kale and simmer for 60 minutes before serving.

Mommy didn’t actually hit "record" when capturing Gabe and Duncan’s first meeting so no video exisits. However, it went very well, and Duncan was very nice and cute. :)
