This is a great meal-in-one pot type of soup. I use turkey Italian sausage to cut down on the fat content. We love the Parmesan cheese toasts on top...use a nice crusty bread for those.

Spinach, Sausage & Lentil Soup image

Perfect for when it's cold out! I just made this with ingredients I had on hand, and it turned out delicious. It was so easy! I don't usually measure herbs and spices, but I am pretty heavy handed with them. Do it to your tastes, but generally with peppers I add about a half a teaspoon to start.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor than frozen spinach and wilts down quickly in the soup.
  • Don't overcook the sausage. Overcooked sausage can become tough and dry. Cook it just until it is browned on all sides.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth that has a lot of flavor. You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth, depending on your preference.
  • Add some vegetables. Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions add flavor and texture to the soup. You can also add other vegetables like potatoes, zucchini, or corn.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a bit of heat with some red pepper flakes or chili powder.

This spinach sausage soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold night.
