Ingredients
- 1 lb Italian turkey sausage
- 1 large onion (diced)
- 3 carrots (diced)
- 4 celery stalks (diced)
- 4 cloves garlic (grated)
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 bay leaf
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 lb dried beans (soaked overnight or two cans any bean)
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 32 oz can diced tomatoes
- chopped parsley (optional garnish)
- Parmesan Cheese (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Heat a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray. Remove sausage from casings and add to pan. Cook until browned, 8-9 minutes, using a wooden spoon to break down into bite-sized pieces. Remove from pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add diced onion, carrots and celery. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to get the juices released from the veggies and cook until tender, about 7-8 minutes. Add garlic, chili flakes and bay leaf. Cook for 30 seconds to release flavors then add beans, cooked sausage, broth and diced tomatoes.
- Bring pot to a boil then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes or until beans are tender.
- Serve with chopped parsley and parmesan.

Notes
- This recipe makes a very large batch which is intentional. I love freezing half of it for another busy night or saving it for lunch throughout the week. Of course, you can always reduce the recipe in half to avoid leftovers.
