Ingredients
- 1 pound mild Italian sausage
- 32 oounces chicken broth
- 12 ounces evaporated or condensed milk (Do NOT use sweetened condensed milk.)

Instructions
- Cook the sausage in the same large stew pot you’ll use to cook the soup, drain excess fat and return sausage to pot.
- Add the chicken broth and evaporated milk and bring to a boil.

- The soup is done when the potatoes are cooked through, about 20-30 minutes. If using spinach or kale, add during the last few minutes of cooking.
