We published this picture as a Wordless Weekender yesterday, but had a few requests for the recipe, so here it is. This delicious dish was the fare at a housewarming/dinner party hosted by G and J in celebration of old friends coming back to Connecticut. We were joined by J and J, as well as C and L, and we had a wonderful time catching up and being together for a fun night of food and good company. It was the first time G had made this particular recipe, which her dad shared with her (we're not sure of the exact origin). Everyone loved how hearty and full of flavor it was - a must-try, indeed!
Tuscan Sausage Soup
serves 10-12
Ingredients:
2 lbs. hot or mild Italian sausage
3 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
3 quarts chicken broth
2 14.5-ounce cans diced tomatoes, with juice
2 15-ounce cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 cups large shell pasta, uncooked
12 ounces spinach leaves
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Remove sausage from casings if necessary and cook sausage meat in a large pot until brown. Add carrots, onion, and garlic, and continue to cook, stirring often, 5-7 minutes. Add broth, tomatoes, beans and basil. Bring to a boil. Add pasta, reduce heat and simmer, covered, until pasta is tender (about 10 minutes). Stir in spinach and cook until just wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve sprinkled with parmesan cheese.

Made this last night and loved it! Savory, spicy, and delicious. Plus we'll be eating the leftovers for two days.
This looks yummy and is similar to a 'soup/stew' I made up ... I use smaller pasta and a can of tomato sauce with some chopped basil as well then add Parmesan in the soup. so yummy.
