Cajun Style Hearty Purple Potato & Kale Chowder

Yesterday I searched high and low for a good fish-free kale chowder but couldn't find one to my preference. Lots of kale soups out there, and lots of chowders, but it seems no one had put them together yet, so I thought I'd try. It turned out really tasty, was super easy, and can be made fairly spicy...
Ingredients:

• 1 large yellow onion, diced and sauteed until soft with 7 cloves of mashed garlic
  
• 1 rib celery, finely diced
  
• 1 bunch kale, chopped into thin strips
  
• 2 lbs purple potatoes, cubed and sauteed until tender
  
• 1/2 gallon dairy free coconut milk
  
• 1 cup Gluten-Free flour
  
• 1 lb ground pork sausage (I used chorizo), browned in a pan
  
• 3 slices bacon, cooked as desired
  
• 4-6 Tbsp Savory Spice Shop's Extra Hot Cajun Style Blackening Seasoning, depending on taste preference

Add all ingredients into a slow cooker and cook on medium heat for 4 hours.  Next time, I'll add some frozen corn, which I think would really make this recipe great. 

This makes a lot, but I think it should freeze well. Enjoy!
