GERMAN CREAMY POTATO SOUP WITH KALE

German Creamy Potato Soup With Kale image

I ate this while in Germany and was desperate to re-create it when I got home! It is rich, creamy, and thick but has great flavor. Many of the measurements can be adjusted according to personal taste--more or less meat, garlic, cheese, kale, etc. This is also very good when served in a bread bowl. Preparation and cook times are approximate.
