Sausage, Kale and Potato Soup

- Place a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and crumble the sausage into the pan.
- Stir as the sausage starts to sizzle, then add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 4 minutes, until sausage is browned and cooked through.
- Add the potatoes, carrot, garlic, chicken broth, tomatoes, kale, oregano, marjoram, and salt. If desired, add red pepper flakes.
- Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes. When the potatoes are tender, serve.
