Last week we were sick in my family so I wanted to make some good hearty soup. This recipe turned out so great and healthy. The noodles make it fun for the kids.
2 tsp olive oil
1 italian sausage (optional)
1/2 sweet yellow onion, diced
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 28 oz can of whole tomatoes, blended
4 cups of chicken broth
1/2 cup of the following: carrots diced, zuccini, and yellow squash
2 15 oz cans of white beans, drained
1 tsp of dried basil
1/2 tsp of dried oregano
Pinch of crushed red pepper
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper
1 cup of tubed shaped pasta
1-2 cups of fresh baby spinach
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup brown sugar
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
Cook the sausage and onion, then add the vegetables until soft. Combine the rest of ingredients except noodles and spinach. Simmer soup for 3 hours. Before serving add the noodles and spinach. Cook for 1-2 more minutes and serve. It is delicious with a little bit of cheese on top.
