I made up this soup for my friend’s going away party – it’s a crowd pleaser! I’ve tested it on teens and adults alike.
2 lb. Italian Sausage
2 Onions, chopped
5 cloves Garlic, minced
3 cans Diced tomatoes
1 can Tomato paste
8 cups Chicken broth
1 cup Red wine
2 cans Cannellini beans
1 Tbsp. Oregano
1 Tbsp. Dried Basil
1 cup Cream (optional)
Cook sausage on stove & break into small pieces.
Sauté the onions. When soft, add a generous amount of chopped garlic. Sauté.
Add the two cans diced tomatoes, tomato paste, 2 boxes broth, 1 cup red wine, 1 tbsp basil, 2tbsp oregano, 2 cans beans
Simmer for at least an hour.
Before serving add the 1-2 cups cream (optional).
