Sausage & Kale Lasagna  soup is flavorful and healthy.  The nutrition for this dish is for a serving size of 2 cups (huge portion for little calories/points) !!  If you have some calories/points to spare.....dollop the optional cheese mix on top of your bowl of soup for an extra creamy true lasagna taste.  If you are making this ahead of time..... Once the soup is complete; cool & store in the fridge for later in the week.  The day that you want to serve:  Heat soup mixture in microwave while you are boiling the pasta.  Once both are complete...serve with cheese on top.  Leftovers taste great and are perfect to take to work.  ENJOY!!
