Italian Sausage Soup - quick and easy soup full of chunky potatoes, smoked sausage and tomatoes. We love it for a lunch or dinner!

Serve this soup with Stuffed Garlic Knots or Easy Garlic Bread.

Grilled cheese and a big bowl of this Italian Sausage Soup 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!

Ingredients:

  • smoked Italian sausage links
  • olive oil
  • butter
  • garlic
  • onion
  • red or yellow potatoes
  • diced tomatoes
  • tomato sauce
  • chicken or vegetable broth
  • water
  • Italian sausage
  • chicken or vegetable bouillon
  • salt and pepper

Instructions:

  • Saute garlic and onion in oil and butter, in a large soup pot.
  • Add sausage and cook until browned.
  • Add potatoes and stir in.
  • Add remaining ingredients (liquids and seasoning) and bring to a boil.
  • Simmer until potatoes are cooked.
