Kale Soup with Spicy Chicken Sausage and Sweet Potato

Kicked up kale soup with spicy chicken sausages and sweet potatoes.

March is not exactly behaving like a lamb. It has snowed twice recently, book-ending our road trip to Cape Cod last week with blustery, leonine winds and sloppy sideways snow. Lucky for us our veteran Suburu Outback gripped the roads like a champ and brought us there and back safe and sound.

We were visiting our favorite peninsula to celebrate the long-pined for Spring Equinox and a certain husband's return to the visual arts (after a six year hiatus "fueled by caffeine, over-exposure to earth metals, and extensive dream analysis"). He was asked to give an oil painting demo at the Creative Arts Center in Chatham. How could we refuse?

We stayed with good friends (blessed with the Yankee sense to have a warm and cozy wood stove going) and cooked up some gluten-free comfort food together- two big casseroles of Creamy Penne Pasta Bake and a big pot of caldo verde- lovely Cape Cod kale soup.

I made a Cape Cod inspired kale soup today, to share with you. With a minor tweak or two.

It's the perfect, spicy soup to brave the end of March.

A month with a promise to end like a lamb.

I'll believe when I see it.
