Tuscan White Bean And Sausage Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in an 8-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the sausage, breaking it into bite-size chunks as it cooks, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to allow excess oil to drain off.
• Add the peppers, oregano, rosemary, garlic and onions to the pot. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, beans and tomatoes. Return the sausage to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a low simmer and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
• Stir in the kale, heavy cream and apple cider vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
• To freeze, transfer the soup to containers with airtight lids, leaving space at the top as it will expand as it freezes. Allow the soup to cool completely before placing the lids on and freezing. Reheat until hot before serving and garnish with Parmesan cheese if desired.

Steps:

• Cook sausage in a large pot over medium-high heat until cooked through and completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Cook and stir onion with the sausage until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add squash and garlic; cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• Pour chicken broth, white beans, and diced tomatoes into the pot; stir. Add spinach, red wine, and Italian seasoning; bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until hot, about 15 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with Pecorino-Romano cheese to serve.

Steps:

• In a soup pot, brown sausage until no longer pink.
• Break up into small pieces while cooking.
• Drain off excess oil. Return to pot.
• In a food processor, chop onion, celery, carrot, rosemary, and garlic until fine; add to the soup pot.
• In same food processor, puree 2 cups Great Northern beans with 1 cup chicken broth; add to the pot.
• NOTE: I like to chop the diced tomatoes a little finer in the food processor before adding.
• Combine remaining ingredients.
• Bring to boil; lower heat and simmer for 60 minutes or until desired consistency.
• Serve with your favorite sides and red wine.
• Enjoy.
