Italian Soup with Sausage and Potatoes Recipe – quick and easy soup full of chunky potatoes, smoked sausage and tomatoes. We love it served with grilled cheese for a great lunch or dinner!

The soup weather is here! Let’s make a big pot of pure comfort goodness! Chunky, loaded, soul-warming soup is exactly what I have been craving lately, since the temperatures went down enough to make me reach for a sweater in the morning. Grilled cheese and a big bowl of this Italian Soup with Sausage and Potatoes makes for a perfect lunch or dinner. It’s quick, easy and packed with flavor!

I love the simplicity of soups and the versatility of ingredients. You can skip or sub any of them and still have a belly-warming end result. Add crusty bread or ooey-gooey grilled cheese and dinner is served. If you are not sure what to make for dinner, this soup is the answer!

I actually took a dare with this one and added great Northern beans to the mix. My Hubby can’t stand white beans so I was quite ready for him to pass on it. Instead, he loved it! He was able to look pass the beans because of the smoked sausage. 😀 Yay! I also kept the potatoes cut into quite large chunks and everyone loved it. You can skip the sausage to keep it strictly vegetarian and maybe add red beans instead. I always start making soup with sauteing garlic and onion in a little bit of butter and olive oil. Add the potatoes and let them saute for few minutes as well. I think it adds richer flavors to the soup.
