Turkey Sausage Soup with Rice and Veggies

Step 1

In a large soup pot or dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add onions and saute for 1 minute. Add garlic and saute until fragrant (about another minute).

Step 2

Add 1/2 cup of the water and turkey sausage. Cook while crumbling turkey sausage until sausage is browned and no longer pink (about 4 to 5 minutes).

Step 3

Add all remaining ingredients except spinach and stir to combine (don’t forget the remaining water). Bring to a gentle boil and reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cover and simmer for 1 hour, or until carrots are tender and rice is cooked.

Step 4

Add spinach and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until spinach is wilted.
