Notes
We aren't huge kale fans in this family... however, we LOVE it in this recipe. It can be found in your produce aisle either in bunches or even cut up in bags.
We love the little yellow butter potatoes or reds in this soup. You can really use any potato you like, but I prefer the creamy texture of the softer potatoes.
If you are looking to cut the recipe down a bit fat wise, you can substitute half and half for the cream. We have done this often and you don't really miss it.
