slow cooker lentil, sausage, and kale soup recipe

Mmm…we’re using the slow cooker again! That means that if you make this recipe, your house will smell cozy and warm and wonderful all day long. There’s nothing better than that in the winter, in my opinion. :)

Oh goodness, just typing this post out is making me want to make something in the slow cooker again! It’s the ultimate dinner solution isn’t it? Throw all the things in the cooker, close it up, turn it on, and forget about it. When it’s dinner time, just get out the dishes and eat. The combination of laziness and deliciousness really works for me. I’m a fan. :)
