Yummy! This soup is great! I make this soup when I make an Italian dinner for guests and everyone wants the recipe. It's also great on those cold winter days where suppers call for a hot and delicious soup. A combination of sausage and vegetable in a beefy broth. This may be made a day in advance. Tastes even better the second day. Enjoy!

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes

Time 2h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 pound hot Italian sausage
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 large onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
1 russet potato, cubed
5 stalks celery, diced
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 cup red wine

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the Italian sausages in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool; remove all but 1 tablespoon of grease from the pot.

BLACK BEAN & ITALIAN SAUSAGE SOUP



Black Bean & Italian Sausage Soup image

This is one of my favourite soups-as-a-meal dish. It is very hearty and is a good comfort food on a cold day. This recipe is a great way to use Italian Sweet Sausage (hot sausage would be good too). Eden black soy beans can be used for the carb conscious--skip the optional rice or pasta addition.

Provided by Signlady

Categories     Clear Soup

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 slices bacon, chopped
1 onion, chopped in medium sized pieces
4 Italian sausages, removed from casings, broken up
2 small yellow peppers or 2 small orange peppers, chopped
4 cups chicken stock (I used 900ml container-low salt)
2 (14 ounce) cans black beans or 2 (14 ounce) cans black soybeans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
salt, pepper, pepper flakes
left over rice (*optional-see note below) or pasta (*optional-see note below)

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot on medium heat, fry the bacon bits to get some fat to coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the garlic powder, chopped onion, chopped peppers, and Italian sausage broken up into chunks. Fry on medium heat until the sausage is no longer pink.
  • Add the chicken stock, 1/2 tsp of cumin and one can of black beans. Simmer covered for 30 minutes.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend some of the soup so that there are still lots of unblended chunks--about 10-15 seconds on high.
  • Add the other can of drained, rinsed beans and 1/2 tsp of cumin.
  • Season with salt, pepper and/or pepper flakes if you like it spicy.
  • Simmer for another 10 minutes.
  • *Serve with a dollop of sour cream if desired. I also serve it over a couple of tablespoons of leftover rice or pasta in each bowl to make it a hearty meal.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE, BEAN AND MACARONI SOUP



Italian Sausage, Bean and Macaroni Soup image

A family favorite for many years. This soup is even better if made a day ahead to blend flavors, just rewarm on top of the stove, and serve with crusty buns. You can add in precooked pasta, any kind you desire to the soup, in place of small uncooked pasta. You can use turkey sausage in place of the Italian sausage.

CREAMY WHITE BEAN & ITALIAN SAUSAGE SOUP



Creamy White Bean & Italian Sausage Soup image

This recipe was in a little recipe pamphlet DH received in the mail. I added extra seasonings and increased the cooking times. I served it with hot crusty sourdough bread and it made a wonderful cold weather soup. As an added bonus using canned beans makes it a very quick and easy dish to put together. I like using the parmesean cheese and DH likes the extra "kick" of the crushed red peppers.

ITALIAN BEAN AND SAUSAGE SOUP



Italian Bean and Sausage Soup image

This soup has become a family favourite through the years. It comes together fairly quickly, but more importantly, it tastes good. I have "excellent" written in the margin.

Provided by Sweet PQ

Categories     Pasta Shells

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces sweet Italian sausage (I use hot)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 cup onion, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can plum tomatoes
3 1/2 cups hot water
2 cups medium pasta shells
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 (19 ounce) can cannellini beans (white kidney beans)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a 4 quart pot. Remove sausage from casing & crumble into oil. Stir in the onions and garlic. Cook over "high" heat, stirring often, until the sausage browns (about 5 minutes).
  • Meanwhile, cut up the tomatoes right in the can (use kitchen shears).
  • Add tomatoes w' juice, water, pasta and bouillon cubes to the pot. Bring to boil over "high" heat, stiring a couple of times. Lower heat, cover & simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, rinse and drain the beans. Add to the soup and simmer for 5 minutes, or until pasta is tender and the beans are heated through.

Tips:

  • Sauté the vegetables first. This will help to bring out their flavor and sweetness.
  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the beans. They should be tender, but still hold their shape.
  • Add some greens to the soup. This will help to brighten up the flavor and add some extra nutrients.
  • Season the soup to taste. Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the broth and make the meal more satisfying.
