Zuppa Toscana is a type of Italian soup from Tuscany that I have been dying to make. It's tangy yet creamy, rich yet not overbearing. As with all recipes I make in our home, this soup is dairy-free, gluten-free, and paleo. Enjoy!
Cook the Italian sausage/ground beef in a skillet. Make sure to add salt (and garlic and onions optional).
Then in the slow cooker, add the sausage, broth, water, potatoes, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cover and cook on High for 4-6 hours.
Before serving, add the coconut milk and kale and mix thoroughly, letting the kale gently wilt in the soup (about 5 minutes). Make sure to add any additional salt to taste and balance out any flavors as you see fit.
