Cook on stove. Enjoy

I do!

Ingredients:

• 1 small onion
• 1 large carrot
• 1 large zucchini
• 3+ cloves garlic (depending on how much you like garlic)
• 2 chicken sausage links
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 can white beans (cannellini beans work well)
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 1 can crushed tomatoes (I used whole peeled Roma tomatoes and hand crushed, but not required)
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 cup small dried pasta (I used orecchiette, but any small pasta works)

Recipe:

• Chop and dice onion, cut carrot into quarters, mince garlic, cut zucchini into quarters
• Remove sausage from casing, add to large pot with olive oil and cook until browned
• Add onion, carrot, garlic & zucchini to the pot with salt and pepper, cook until veggies have softened stirring occasionally (about 10 minutes)
• While the veggies cook down, drain the beans well by pouring into a colander in the sink
• Once veggies have softened, add broth, crushed tomatoes, white beans, basil, oregano to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil
• Once it begins to boil, add pasta and reduce heat to a simmer until pasta is tender and soup has thickened (about 15 minutes)
• Taste for seasoning and serve/enjoy!
