Sausage and Cauliflower Gnocchi Soup

with mushrooms / kale

Much of the rich, earthy flavor of this soup comes from browning mushrooms in the pan before any other ingredients are added.
Smarts #1: This soup is absolutely loaded with ingredients, so you'll need the full amount of stock listed. Leaving the lid on and slightly ajar while the soup simmers will help prevent too much liquid from evaporating off during cooking.
Smarts #2: Paleo-friendly cauliflower gnocchi are becoming increasingly popular and can be found in the freezer section of many grocery stores. If you can't find them, substitute fresh or frozen cauliflower florets.
