Instructions

Heat a dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Drizzle in a little olive oil and add in the sausage. Crumble and cook the sausage. Once it's browned and cooked through, remove it onto a plate.
Add the onions, carrots, and red bell pepper into the pot. Season with salt and pepper and saute for 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook for another minute.
Drop in the parmesan cheese rind, cooked sausage, fire roasted tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, and chicken broth. Stir everything together and bring the soup to a boil.
Stir in the pasta and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 11-12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente.
Remove the parmesan cheese rind and stir in the spinach and basil. Cook for another minute until the spinach wilts. Taste for seasoning.
Serve the soup topped with shredded parmesan cheese, a dollop of ricotta, and chopped basil.
