Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Italian sausage
  • 1 small sweet onion, diced
  • 3 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. Once browned, remove it, leaving 1-2 tbsp grease.

  6. Finish with red wine vinegar, black pepper, and salt to taste.
  7. Serve hot with parmesan, herbs, and bread.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Replace heavy cream with coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Use turkey sausage for a leaner version.
