Cooking Instructions

In a large deep pot over medium heat, add half of the Vegetable Oil (2 Tbsp) Once hot, add in the Vegan Sausage Links (4) and brown lightly, about 2-4 minutes.

Once browned, remove from the pot and set aside.

Using the same pot over medium heat, add the rest of the Yellow Onion (1) and sauté the Carrots (2) , Celery (2 pieces) , and Vegetable Oil (1 Tbsp) until softened and translucent about 5-7 minutes. You don’t want to brown these.

Stir in Garlic (3 cloves) , Italian Seasoning (2 tsp) , Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (as needed) , and Tomato Paste (1 Tbsp) . Sauté for 1-2 minutes or until the tomato paste is cooked out.

Now add back in the cooked sausage, Cannellini White Kidney Beans (2 cans) , Vegetable Broth (8 cups) , Bay Leaf (1) , Salt (to taste) , and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) . Bring to a boil on high heat and then reduce to a lower heat to simmer gently for 10-15 minutes to develop the flavors.

Add in the Kale (2 cups) and cook for 2-3 minutes or just until the kale is wilted but not mushy. Remove the bay leaf.

Optionally serve with a Baguettes (to taste) or crusty bread and a Lemons (to taste) wedge.
