4 cups kale
3 slices turkey bacon
10 ounces Italian sausage or 10 ounces ground turkey
1/2 cup onion, minced
4 garlic cloves, minced
5 large russet potatoes, unpeeled cubed
46 ounces sodium-free chicken stock
1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds, crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons half-and-half (optional)

1
Wash and dry kale.
2
Microwave bacon until crisp, set aside until end.
3
In Dutch oven, saute sausage and onion until sausage is brown, remove grease.
4
Add garlic, potatoes, stock, fennel, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, bring to low boil, cover, and cook until potatoes are done, about 20 minutes.
5
Meanwhile, remove ribs of kale and chop.
6
Lower burner to low, remove with slotted spoon about 2 cups potatoes, roughly mash with fork, and stir back into pan.
7
Stir in chopped kale, simmer about 4 minutes-- we like kale a bit chewy.
8
Add half and half.
9
Stir in crumbled bacon, serve.

NOTE: If freezing, hold off on half and half, add later. You can also put hot soup into bowl and add a tablespoon at a time of the half and half to each bowl. Haven't tried yet in crockpot but assume it would work fine.
