Love, Love, Love me some warm, comforting, “green” soup in the fall and winter months. This fits the bill, and I find that I come back to this recipe often. High in protein and bone-building nutrients from the kale, this is a dish that fits the bill of comfort, warmth and health!

4 cloves garlic, minced
5 c. chicken or vegetable broth
1/2 lb. kielbasa sausage (optional)
