This sausage soup is made with Italian sausage or chorizo, spinach, onions, and potatoes.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 to 4 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 2 pounds)
  • 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 12 ounces spicy sausage, such as chorizo or Italian sausage
  • boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 pound fresh spinach, cleaned and chopped

PREPARATION:

In a large Dutch oven or stock pto, combine potatoes, onion, chicken broth, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 25 to 30 minutes.

Meanwhile place sausages in a skillet in about 1/2 inch of boiling water. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain and remove sausage casings. Thinly slice sausage or crumble; set aside.

Blend or process cooked potato mixture, a little at a time, until smooth. Return to the stock pot and add butter and chopped spinach. Cook, uncovered, over low heat for about 3 to 5 minutes, until spinach is wilted. Stir in sliced or crumbled sausages; serve immediately. Serves 6.
