Preparation

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, and cook the sausage, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until brown and crispy. Stir in the onions and garlic and cook until soft. Add the kale, a handful at a time and sauté until wilted.
Transfer the sausage and kale mixture to a slow-cooker, and add in the salt, pepper, white beans and chicken stock. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours.
Serve with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
