RECIPE NAME: ZUPPA TUSCANA
(Just like the Olive Garden's Recipe)

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground Italian sausage (hot or mild)
1 1/2 tsp. crushed red peppers
1 large diced white onion
4 Tbs. bacon pieces
2 tsp. garlic puree
10 cups water
5 cubes of chicken bouillon
1 cup heavy cream
1 lb. sliced Russet potatoes, or about 3 large potatoes
1/4 of a bunch of kale

HOW TO MAKE THIS:
Saute' the Italian sausage and crushed red pepper in a large pot. Drain excess fat, refrigerate while you prepare other ingredients. In the same pan, saute' bacon, onions and garlic over low-medium heat for approximately 15 minutes or until the onions are soft. Add chicken bouillon and water to the pot and heat until it starts to boil. Add the sliced potatoes and cook until soft, about half an hour. Add the heavy cream and just cook until thoroughly heated. Stir in the sausage and the kale, let all heat through and serve. Makes 6-8 servings
