Thursday was a nice warm day, probably one of the last really warm days that we'll have for awhile, so I decided to leave work early and have a lazy afternoon. \u00a0I work a 4-10 schedule, so it also meant an early start to the weekend. \u00a0I wanted to cook something outside, since it's been awhile since I've been able to do that. \u00a0I saw this yummy looking soup on SeasonsAndSuppers.ca<\/a>, so decided to try it in a Dutch oven, with a couple of modifications. \u00a0The soup? \u00a0Tuscan Kale Bean Sausage Soup. \u00a0It turned out great.<\/p>\n

I got the Dutch oven going and then took 5 Johnsonville hot sausages, split the casings and emptied the sausage insides into the Dutch oven.<\/p>\n

\"Sausage<\/p>\n

While they were going I cut up a few carrots, an onion and some tomatoes from my garden.<\/p>\n

Once the sausage was done, I removed some of the grease, then added the veggies to saut\u00e9 a bit.<\/p>\n

\"Sauce<\/p>\n

Once that was done, I added chicken boullion cubes, along with water, put the lid on a brought it to a boil.<\/p>\n

While waiting for it to boil, I drained to white Northern beans, and coarsely chopped a couple cups of kale.<\/p>\n

Once boiling, I added the kale and beans to the soup, added about 1 tsp of pepper and 1 1\/2 tsp of basil. \u00a0Then let it simmer by turning down the heat, which meant I removed some of the coals from underneath the Dutch oven.<\/p>\n

\"Kale<\/p>\n

When done, I served in a bowl with the grated Parmesan cheese on top, and, like I said at the beginning, it was yummy! \u00a0Super easy and yummy are some of my favorites! \u00a0And to make it better, I did it under the shade of my tree, lounging in the backyard. \u00a0Doesn't get much better than that!<\/p>\n
