Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat.

Cook 1 pound of Italian sausage in the Dutch oven until browned, then scoop it out into a bowl.

Add bacon to the pot and cook until browned, then scoop it out and set it on a paper towel to drain.

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pot, then add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onions are soft and scraping up the brown bits from the bottom.

Add diced turnips to the pot and pour in homemade bone broth, cooking until the turnips are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.

Scoop out some of the cooking liquid and blend it with frozen cauliflower rice and soaked cashews until thick and creamy.

Add the sausage and chopped kale back into the pot and bring to a simmer until the kale is tender.

Serve hot, garnished with crispy bacon.
