We’re back with more soup today! Today we have our Tortellini, Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Kale Soup for you guys! This soup couldn’t be easier to throw together, especially bc we’re ‘cheating’ a little with store bought tortellini. This soup gives you everything you need, like some carby goodness from the tortellini, a nice salty protein kick from the turkey sausage, and a healthy dose of vegetables to balance everything out. This soup is so easy, it really makes the perfect weeknight dinner, especially with a nice crusty baguette to sop up all the flavorful broth. Enjoy! xx, Jenny
