Ingredients
Italian Sausage Soup
- 12 Italian Sausage Links (Sweet sausage)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large yellow onions chopped
- 2 ½ cups chicken stock
- 3 cups water
- 1 (16-ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
- 1 (10-12-ounce) bag frozen corn
- 1 (10-12-ounce) bag frozen green beans
- 1 pound elbow macaroni (or any pasta variety)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Sausage Soup
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, warm the olive oil and sauté the onions until they are translucent.
- Add the sausage links and cook over medium heat. Remove the sausage links from the pan. Turn the heat off while you slice the sausage into ½-inch pieces.
- Add the sliced sausage back to the pot. Cook more if needed. Add the chicken stock and water. Stir with a wooden spoon to scrape all the brown bits off the bottom of the pot.
- Add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, corn, green beans, basil, brown sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Add the pasta and combine all of the ingredients. Let the soup simmer over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally until the pasta is done.
Notes
Sweet Italian sausage or hot works great.
Macaroni tends to absorb a lot of water. If needed, add additional water. You can also add additional sausage if needed.
We like green beans and corn, but you can also use a bag of mixed vegetables.
