Sausage & White Bean Soup (with ground turkey/chicken option)

Heat a large pot with a lid over medium heat. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil then add in onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes then add in the garlic, ginger and seasonings and sauté until fragrant, 2ish minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to combine. Add in the sausage, casings removed, or turkey and brown the meat as you break it up with a wooden spoon or masher. Once the meat is browned, stir in the beans to combine the mixture. Add broth and bring to a boil, cover, then simmer for 20 minutes. Add in kale and parsley and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and serve with fresh parmesan cheese on top!
