Spicy Sausage and Kale Soup
with carrots
We love one-pot soups, and this one is perfect for winter with both hearty ingredients and warming flavors. Plus who doesn't love a fried egg finish?
Smarts: Harissa paste is a Middle Eastern chili paste with a deep smoky flavor. If you can find it, it's definitely worth trying. We love it to add a little heat to everything!

Make
- Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add first part of cooking oil and then onions, kale stems, tomato paste, harissa paste (if using) and red pepper flakes with a dash of salt. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened.
- Next add in tomatoes, carrots, celery, and sausage, and saute until they get a bit golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Pour in stock (add higher end of the range if you like a more broth-y soup) and bring to a boil. Simmer covered for 8 to 10 minutes. Add kale leaves and simmer for another minute. Season to taste with more salt, pepper, and / or anything you like with some heat. This is meant to be a spicy soup but if you have kids, adjust accordingly.
- While soup is simmering, heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add second part of cooking oil and then crack eggs into heated oil. Lightly salt and pepper and cook for ~3 minutes. Cover pan with a lid and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until whites are set. If you like your eggs more cooked, flip and cook for another minute or two.
- Divide soup into bowls and top with eggs and any desired seasonings - salt, pepper, harissa paste, or hot sauce.
