Italian Sausage, Tomato and White Bean Soup image

This was in AJC 30 minute challenge: only five ingredients and ready in 30 minutes. It said 4 servings, but next time will double for the 4 of us (I want leftovers). It was absolutely delicious. I used Turkey sausage. Plus I used 1/2 lb. turkey bacon as I only had 1/2 lb. sausage!

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb sweet Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
1 onion, chopped
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained. (I substituted Northern beans)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil oregano and garlic (called for draining but I chose not to)

Steps:

  • In stock pot over medium heat, crumble sausage and cook until no longer pink. If necessary, drain all but 1 tablespoon fat.
  • Add onion and saute until softened.
  • Add chicken broth, cannellini beans and tomatoes.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or longer if you need to.
  • Enjoy a quick and easy but really delightful meal.
  • Serve with crusty bread and fruit salad; I had apples and grapes sprinkled with fresh lemon juice in refrigerator.
