Italian Sausage Kale Soup image

My mom dehydrates the last pick of tomatoes from her garden each fall-perfect for quick soups like this one. When I have time to prepare dried beans, I do-but don't worry if you don't. Canned beans are just as good. -Lori Terry, Chicago, Illinois

I'm not a big fan of kale, but I really enjoyed this soup. The sausage and tomatoes helped to balance out the bitterness of the kale.

This soup was just okay. I found the flavor to be a bit bland, and the kale was a bit tough. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I love this soup! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I usually add a little extra kale and sausage, and sometimes I'll throw in some diced potatoes or carrots.
