Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 LB sausage I used breakfast because that is what I had but I think Italian sausage would be even better.
  • 5-6 Cups Kale You want a lot of Kale!
  • 1 Jar 8.5 oz sun-dried tomatoes
  • 5 Cups Bone Broth Chicken flavor
  • 3 tablespoon fresh garlic minced
  • 1 onion large sweet
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon Crushed Red Peper Flakes
  • 1 teaspoon Lawry’s Garlic Salt
  • 16 oz Tortellini
  • 4 tablespoon butter
  • ¼ Cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¾ Cup parmesan shredded

Instructions
 

  • Gather everything you need and get your soup pot hot on medium high. Cook your sausage until browned. While the sausage is cooking, finely chop your onion, (wash- if needed) and chop your kale, and mince your garlic.
  • Once sausage is cooked, set aside.
  • In the same pan add in the butter, onion, garlic, sundried tomato (with the oil if you choose), spices, and flour.
  • Whisk and let cook for about 3 minutes and then add in the bone broth.
  • Once the bone broth is in add your tortellini in and cook according to instructions with the lid on.
  • After your tortellini is cooked, add in your heavy whipping cream, parmesan, and kale.
  • Place the lid back on. Turn the heat off and give it a stir. Let it sit for a few minutes stirring occasionally.

Notes

You could use regular pasta instead of tortellini. When reheating, you might want to add a little bit of chicken bone broth. You can use chicken stock in place of chicken bone broth.
This is great leftover. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to about 3 days.
