Ingredient Breakdown
Let’s talk about the fabulous ingredients that come together to make this comforting soup. Feel free to tweak them to make this recipe your own! Here’s what you’ll need:
1 tablespoon olive oil: This is our flavorful base for cooking the sausage and getting all those lovely flavors going. You could even use butter if you want it even richer.
1 pound Italian sausage (low FODMAP option): Look for low FODMAP sausage this gives the soup a hearty and satisfying flavor. Ground turkey or chicken makes a great substitute too!
4 cups low FODMAP chicken broth: You’ll want to check the label here! Make sure it’s low FODMAP, so everyone can enjoy this soup without worry.
2 cups chopped kale: Kale adds a lovely green pop of color and tons of vitamins. It holds its texture well, which is perfect for this soup! Spinach could easily step in if that’s what you have.
1 cup diced potatoes: I mean, what’s soup without potatoes, am I right? They add a comforting heartiness to the dish.
1 cup coconut milk: Creamy goodness alert! The coconut milk gives the soup that lovely, velvety texture without adding dairy.
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning: Dried herbs, a blend of oregano, thyme, and basil, will really drive home those Tuscan flavors. You could substitute with fresh herbs if you have those handy!
Salt and pepper to taste: A couple pinches of salt and pepper, don’t shy away from adjusting to your palate.
Let’s Get Cooking!
Now that we have all our ingredients ready, let’s get cooking! You’ll be amazed at how all these delicious elements combine into a big, comforting bowl of goodness.
Step 1: Kick It Off
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. I usually let it warm for about a minute, just until it starts to shimmer a bit. You want to make sure it’s hot enough to start cooking that sausage.
Step 2: Sizzle It Up
Add the Italian sausage and cook until it’s browned, stirring occasionally. You’ll want to break it up into smaller pieces as it cooks. The aroma will start filling your kitchen, and trust me, it’s delightful!
Step 3: The Broth Boost
Once the sausage is cooked through, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Listen for that lovely bubbling sound!
Step 4: Potato Time
Toss in the diced potatoes and cook until they’re tender, about 10 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when they pierce easily with a fork.
Step 5: Green Goodness
Stir in the kale and pour in the coconut milk. This is where the magic happens, the soup becomes creamy, comforting, and totally irresistible.
Step 6: Flavor Fest
Add the Italian seasoning and sprinkle in a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Here’s the trick: give the soup a good stir and let it simmer for another 5 minutes.
Step 7: Serve It Up!
After those 5 minutes, the soup is ready to serve! Top it off with a little extra pepper or even some Parmesan if you want to treat yourself!
