Lentil, Kale, and Sausage Soup image

The original recipe is from the Nov 2011 'Taste of Home' magazine and called Lentil-Tomato soup. I doubled the size and tweaked the seasonings. I recommend cornbread as a side. Great for cold winter days.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover sausage. I always have some leftover sausage after I make breakfast, and this soup is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a big fan of lentils, but I really enjoyed this soup. The lentils were cooked perfectly and they didn't have that mushy texture that I usually don't like.
