Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound turkey sausage
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 1 cup carrot (peeled and diced)
  • 1/2 cup pearl barley
  • 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 15 ounce cans petite diced tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 3 cups kale (roughly chopped)

Instruction

  • In a skillet on medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it into smaller pieces as it cooks. Once cooked through, drain off any excess liquid and place in a slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients, except tomato paste and kale, to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or until the barley is tender. Stir in the tomato paste and kale. Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes or just until the kale has wilted. Serve hot.
