Tuscan Soup

tomatoes

bacon ((5 oz.))

onion carrots

Italian sausage (hot

Fine sea salt & pepper

garlic ((3 cloves))

Italian seasoning

white flour

(15.5 oz.) white cannellini beans, (drained and rinsed)

carton (32 oz.) chicken broth ((4 cups))

baby spinach, (coarsely chopped)

heavy whipping cream

Optional,

BACON: In a large, cast iron pot, heat 2 tsp of the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar over medium-high heat. Add diced bacon and cook until browned and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper-towel-lined plate, leaving the grease in the pot.

ONION, CARROTS AND SAUSAGE: Add diced onion and carrots to the pot and sauté for 3 minutes. Press to the edges of the pan. Add Italian sausage to the center of the pan and season with salt &amp; pepper (I add 3/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper). Let the sausage sear and then break apart and crumble, browning through. Once browned, add in the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and Italian seasoning. Mix through. Sprinkle flour on top and mix through, cooking for 1 full minute while stirring constantly.

SIMMER: Add the drained beans and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium low. Cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and give the soup a good stir. Add coarsely chopped spinach and heavy cream. Stir until the spinach is wilted.

SERVE: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Ladle into bowls and top with reserved bacon. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
