My family cannot resist this Italian sausage soup. It features sausage, veggies, and beans in the most flavorful broth. Watch the video below to see how I make it in my kitchen!
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add Italian sausage, breaking it into smaller pieces with a spoon or spatula. Cook until browned and cooked through.
Add the chopped onions, carrots, celery, and red bell pepper to the pot. Sauté until vegetables are softened.
Stir in minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and tomato paste. Pour beef broth into the pot, followed by drained and rinsed cannellini beans. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to cook for 10 minutes.
Add the salt and pepper. Lower the heat and pour in heavy cream, allowing the soup to simmer, then fold in the baby spinach and cook until wilted.
