Instructions
Instant Pot
Turn the Instant Pot on the saute function. Add the olive oil to the pot. Add the onions and the sausage. Break the sausage into small pieces. Cook until the onions are translucent and fragrant and the sausage is no longer pink.
Add the garlic and stir. Cook for 1 minute.
Add the chicken broth, oregano, and potatoes to the pot. Stir. If the broth does not completely cover the potatoes, add a small amount of water. The potatoes will need to be fully covered with liquid.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot. Set the pot to Manual High-Pressure Cooking for 5 minutes.
Allow the steam to naturally release for 10 minutes instead of quick release.
Remove the lid. Add the cooked bacon, whipping cream, almond milk, and kale to the pot. Turn the Instant Pot on the saute function. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the kale has wilted.
Serve with shredded parmesan if desired.
Slow Cooker
Cook the sausage in a skillet on medium-high heat with the olive oil. Add the onions and stir. Cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic and stir. Cook until the onions are soft and fragrant.
Add the sausage mixture, chicken broth, oregano, and potatoes to the slow-cooker. Stir. If the broth does not completely cover the potatoes, add a small amount of water. The potatoes will need to be fully covered with liquid.
Cook for 3-4 hours on High, 7-8 hours on Low. Add the cooked bacon, whipping cream, almond milk, and kale to the pot. Cook for 5-10 minutes until the kale has wilted.
