Ingredients
- 2 lbs Italian sausage A mix of hot and sweet is what I use
- 1/4 cup garlic minced
- 1/4 cup white onion minced
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes I like to use the ones in oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 cups chicken broth low sodium best
- 1 lb tortellini pasta cheese or spinach is best
- 6 oz kale
- 8 oz cheese goat, cream cheese, mozzarella is best, of choice
Spices
- 2 tsps Cajun seasoning
- 2 tsps paprika
- 2 tsps salt
- 2 tsps chicken bouillon
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the Italian sausage over medium heat. Break it into small pieces with a spoon as it cooks.
- Once the sausage is browned, add minced garlic and white onion to the pot. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is aromatic.
- Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the mixture.
- Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to incorporate it into the sausage mixture.
- Add the low-sodium chicken broth to the pot, continuing to stir to combine all the ingredients.
- Stir in the tortellini pasta, ensuring it is submerged in the liquid. Cook according to the package instructions or until the tortellini is al dente.
- Once the tortellini is cooked, add the kale to the pot. Allow it to wilt and cook for a few minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together the Cajun seasoning, paprika, salt, chicken bouillon, pepper, red pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper. Add this spice mixture to the soup, adjusting to taste if needed.
- Add in cheese of choice and allow it to melt.
- Let the soup simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
