For a vegetarian version, substitute the turkey sausage with a plant-based alternative. You may need to add some olive oil to the pot to prevent sticking. If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the greens. Fresh herbs such as parsley or thyme can also be added for extra flavor. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness.
