Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground hot Italian sausage
  • 1 pound ground regular Italian sausage
  • 2 med-large white onions diced
  • 6 cloves of garlic
  • 8 cups good-quality chicken stock
  • 2 12-ounce jar DeLallo roasted red peppers, drained and diced
  • 2 bunch kale roughly chopped
  • 1 pound DeLallo potato gnocchi
  • 1 and 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cupped palmfuls of salt
  • 10 shakes of red pepper
  • 8 shakes of coarse black pepper

Instructions

  • Add both Italian sausages to the large stockpot or Dutch oven. Cook over medium-high heat until the sausage is completely browned, stirring occasionally and breaking up the sausage with a spoon.
  • Drain out as much of the excess grease as possible.
  • Add in onion and garlic. Cook until onion is transparent.
  • Add in the chicken stock and diced roasted red peppers, and bring the mixture to a simmer (still over medium-high heat).
  • Once it reaches a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and add gnocchi and stir to combine.
  • Continue cooking for 20 minutes so the gnocchi can absorb the taste of the broth.
  • Stir in the heavy cream, red pepper, salt, and pepper.
  • Add Kale.
  • Simmer for 20 mins.
  • Eat yummy soup.
