Creamy Tuscan White Bean Soup (High Protein)
Warm up with this hearty Tuscan white bean soup! Packed with chicken Italian sausage and white beans, it's the perfect one-pot meal!
Ingredients
- 1 lb (454g) spicy chicken Italian sausage
- 1 cup (150g) carrots, diced
- 3/4 cup (75g) celery, diced
- 1 (small) (85g) onion, diced
- 1/4 tsp rosemary
- 2 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp basil
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 can (15oz) white beans
- 2 cups (56g) spinach
Instructions
- Place your soup pot over medium-high heat. Remove casings from your sausage, and add to your pot. Crumble and cook until brown, about 5 minutes.
- Remove cooked sausage from soup pot and set aside.
- Into the same pot, add your carrot, onion and celery and turn down heat.
- Cook veggies until soft, about 5 minutes. If needed, add a splash of water to deglaze the pot.
- Add in your spices, broth and the can of beans. Stir until combined and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove bay leaf, and blend soup right in the pot using an immersion blender. (If you are using a traditional blender, you may have to blend in batches as you don't want to overfill the blender cup. Once blended in your traditional blender, carefully pour back into the soup pot)
- Add in your cooked sausage and spinach. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until spinach is wilted. Taste, and adjust salt if needed.
