Spicy Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Kale Soup
with mushrooms

Active: 35 min Total: 35 min
This soup was last featured in 2015 and has a clean, satisfying combination of flavors and textures.
Smarts: Harissa is a Middle Eastern chili paste - feel free to adjust the spice level to suit your preference. Any hot sauce will work or you can skip it altogether, but the unique smokiness of harissa adds a great flavor dimension to this dish.
