Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb Italian sausage mild or spicy, casing removed
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup ditalini pasta
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 2 cups spinach fresh
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Soup Pot

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add onion and garlic. Cook until soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add ditalini pasta and cook until al dente.
  4. Reduce heat. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and cooked sausage. Simmer until creamy and heated through.
  5. Stir in spinach just before serving. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

Notes

Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best melt. Add broth when reheating leftovers if the soup thickens. Freeze without pasta for better texture upon reheating.
