Sausage Soup Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Brown the Sausage

   In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sweet Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

2. 2

   Sauté Vegetables

   Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

3. 3

   Add Tomatoes and Broth

   Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (with juices) and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.

4. 4

   Cook the Rice

   Once boiling, stir in the white rice. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 15 minutes until the rice is tender.

5. 5

   Add Spinach and Season

   Stir in the chopped spinach, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

6. 6

   Serve with Cheese

   Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with shredded fresh mozzarella cheese.
