Lentil, Kale and Sausage One Pot Meal (Dairy, Gluten and Sugar Free)

I have made this dish a few times now and love it.  It has lots of flavour and eats like a full meal.  Do ensure you understand all the ingredients in your smoked sausage as there is often additives etc. in sausage. This is a very hearty dish which I look forward to making more in the winter.  Yum!
