KIELBASA SPINACH SOUP

When it comes to meal-in-a-bowl soups, this is one of the best. Collard greens or chopped kale can be used instead of spinach. The hot pepper sauce adds real kick, but it's fine to leave it out and let each person flavor their own serving. -Antoinette Pisicchio, Easton, Pennsylvania

CHEESE TORTELLINI SOUP W/ KIELBASA, WHITE BEANS, SPINACH RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Cheese Tortellini Soup w/ Kielbasa, White Beans, Spinach Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by mytastytreasures

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 Tablespoons olive oil
12 oz thinly sliced fully cooked
smoked kielbasa
1/2 cup diced onion
4 cloves garlic ,minced
1 1/2 teaspoons choped fresh thyme or
1/2 teaspoon dried
Scant 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
5 cans chicken broth (low salt) 14 oz
each
1 can diced tmatoes with liquid (I
use fire roasted) 14.5 oz
1 can (15 oz) white cannellini beans,
rinsed and drained
1 pkg. 9oz fresh cheese tortellini
1/2 bunch fresh spinach, rinsed,
dried, tough stems removed
Grated Parmesan cheese , for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa, garlic, onion, thyme, and red pepper flakes and saute until browned, about 12 minutes. ( I threw the garlic in after about 8 minutes of cooking.. didn't want it to burn.) Add the broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil . Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the beans and tortellini to the soup. Simmer until the pasta is just tender to the bite, about 10 minutes. Stir the spinach into the soup and turn off the heat; let stand for about 2 minutes. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese before serving. ** Please note , add tortellini at another time if you aren't going to eat this all right away. It will become mushy if stored and absorbs some of the soup. I recommend boiling it as needed al dente, then throwing it in the soup for a couple of minutes.

Tips for Making Kielbasa Spinach Soup:

  • Use high-quality kielbasa. Look for kielbasa that is made with fresh, lean pork and has a good smoky flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. When cooking the kielbasa, make sure to give it enough space so that it can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pot, the kielbasa will steam instead of brown.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables that you like, such as carrots, celery, onions, or potatoes.
  • Add some spice. If you like spicy food, you can add some cayenne pepper, chili powder, or paprika to the soup. You can also add some fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme.
  • Don't overcook the spinach. Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Once the spinach is wilted, it is done.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread or crackers. Kielbasa spinach soup is a hearty and filling soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Kielbasa spinach soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give kielbasa spinach soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
