Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
4 strips bacon
4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
1 large onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, chopped
6 cups low-sodium chicken stock
2 cups firmly packed chopped kale leaves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Cook bacon until crisp in a large soup pot. Remove bacon strips with a slotted spoon and set aside. Lightly saute potatoes, onion, and garlic in bacon fat. Add stock, kale, salt, and pepper and simmer for an hour or until potatoes are soft. Mix soup in batches in blender until it is smooth. Return to pot and thin with stock or milk if necessary. Crumble bacon and sprinkle over soup as garnish.
