In a large skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

In a slow cooker, add the cooked sausage, bacon, onion, garlic, chicken broth, water, diced potatoes, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
-
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours, until the potatoes are tender.

Stir in the chopped kale and heavy cream. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes on high or 1 hour on low, until the kale is wilted.
