This looks like a very yummy soup, but Caldo Verde it is not??? And a a Portuguese woman, that recipe hurts my eyes??? the literal translation of Caldo Verde is Green Broth. And that broth is not green.

Instructions to make Slow Cooker Caldo Verde Soup:
- Dice the garlic and onions, separate into two piles.
- Lengthwise, slice the linguica/chourico in half, then cut into quarter inch slices
- In a hot pot over medium heat, coat the pot with olive oil. Add the garlic. Saute the garlic for a minute or two.
- Next add the onions and carrots into the pot. Cook together with the garlic for about 5 minutes.
- Once the onions are translucent, the linguica goes into the pot. Cook the linguica until it is slightly browned. Add all of it into the slow cooker.
- Cut the potatoes into one inch pieces. Place the potatoes into the slow cooker.
- Stir everything into the slow cooker, except for the kale. Place the bay leaves on top. Close the slow cooker, set the temperature to low, and cook for about 8 hours.
- After 8 hours, discard the bay leaves and remove the linguica with a slotted spoon. Put to the side. Mix in the kale and cook for another 30 minutes with the temperature on high.
- When 30 minutes is over, use a hand blender to blend to almost smooth. It is okay to have some chunks. Stir back in the linguica. You do not need to blend. That is totally optional.
- Enjoy!
