INSTANT POT SWEET POTATO SAUSAGE AND KALE SOUP

Today was a recipe double-header featuring sweet potatoes and kale! This one is my Instant Pot Sweet Potato Sausage and Kale Soup. Oh boy, does this have some flavor! It is hearty, but not heavy. It’s pretty healthy, too!

I considered a pureed soup, but I wanted kale in it, and something with a more of a brothy consistency interested me more. Plus, you can add ingredients, like a can of white beans, and that makes it flexible.

So Instant Pot Sweet Potato Sausage and Kale Soup was the winner! But like I said, this was a sweet potato double header. I also made Instant Pot Sweet Potato Kale Soup, a vegetarian and vegan soup with just as much flavor as this soup, but a completely different flavor profile
