Italian Sausage Soup with Rotini Pasta, Bell Pepper, Tomato & SpinachItalian Sausage Soup with Rotini Pasta, Bell Pepper, Tomato & Spinach — a 40-minute dinner recipe with 16 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

3 (142 g) pkg baby spinach

1420 ml chicken or vegetable broth

3 (398 ml) cans diced tomatoes

6 cloves garlic

85 g Parmesan cheese

6 pork sausages

3 red bell peppers

255 g rotini pasta

1 ½ medium yellow onions

balsamic vinegar

black pepper

extra virgin olive oil

oregano, dried

parsley flakes

salt

thyme, dried

Instructions

Peel, halve, and small dice onions.

Peel and mince garlic.

Preheat a large pot over medium heat.

While the pot heats up, use the tip of a knife to slice down the length of each sausage; peel off casings and discard.

Once the pot is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add onion, garlic, sausage, and spices; cook, breaking the meat apart with a spoon, until sausage is brown and crumbly, 6-8 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash and dry bell peppers; using a clean cutting board, trim, seed, and small dice.

When the sausage is done, add bell pepper to the pot and stir to combine. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 4-5 minutes more.

Add broth, tomatoes, water, pasta, and vinegar to the pot; stir to combine. Cover and bring to a boil; once boiling, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until pasta is cooked through, 8-10 minutes.

While the soup is simmering, wash and dry the spinach (skip this step if the spinach came pre-washed), then roughly chop.

Finely grate Parmesan.

Add spinach to the soup in handfuls, waiting for the spinach to wilt slightly before adding the next handful. Stir to combine and remove from heat.

To serve, divide the soup between bowls and top with Parmesan. Enjoy!
