Instructions
In a large pan add sausage, onion, and garlic. Roughly chop while the sausage is cooking and cook over medium-high heat until the sausage is completely cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Once the sausage is cooked remove from heat and drain excess grease, if you desire.
In a 6 qt. slow cooker, add chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, cooked sausage, and all of the seasonings.
Add lid onto the slow cooker and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low 4-5.
Add heavy cream, shredded parmesan cheese, and penne and cook for another 20 minutes.
Then add chopped kale and cook for another 10 minutes.
Once cooked, serve and garnish with more cheese if you so desire.
