Soup's on...

Yesterday I got a new toy...a Cuisinart Food Processor.  It is amazing!  I have been putting off getting one only because I had a food processor.  Notice, I said had...a few days ago in the middle of shredding cheese my old one decided to die.  I have to admit I was a little excited that it was no longer working ;)  So, now to get a new one...with no guilt.  Of course, once I got it home, I had to play with it a little...I pulverized an onion, mashed potatoes...without meaning too!  It is a very powerful machine  and you have to get used to it.  Needless to say when I decided to use it to make dinner last night, my son was right there...what boy can't resist chopping things up in a cool machine?  Little did he know that he was going to get a cooking lesson in the process...We decided to make Zuppa Tuscano.  It is our favorite soup from Olive Garden and after some searching around and tweaking of recipes I have finally come up with a delicious home version...ours is a little creamier.

1 lb Italian sausage
1 large onion, chopped
3-5 cloves garlic, minced
6 cups sliced potatoes
32 oz chicken stock
2 cups kale, chopped
2 cups heavy cream
salt & pepper to taste


-In large pot, brown sausage; drain off fat.

-Move sausage to side and saute onions and garlic until onions   are translucent.

-  Add chicken stock and potatoes.  Cover and simmer for approximately 20 minutes until potatoes are tender.

-  Stir in kale and cream.  Season to taste with salt and pepper.  Cover and simmer for 5 more minutes.

-  Serve topped with grated Parmesan cheese.

Delizioso!
