Sausage and Kale Lentil Stew

Sausage and Kale Lentil Stew

Kale is an yummy new ingredient I have just recently started to use. It is great in soups, stews, and smoothies! It is good for lowering your cholesterol too! Combined with the sausage in this stew it made an excellent dinner for a cool fall night. Again a recipe from Taste of Home. I love trying out new recipes!
