Every fall smoke up a bunch of Italian hot sausages. Some people like bacon in everything, am liking smoked hot italian sausage in a lot of things.

Never thought about sausage soup, may try some now. It looks delicious!
Did put some sausage in roasted veggies today.
 
I'm no fan of eggplant or zucchini but that's my problem I guess. We're lucky to have "real" Italian sausage around here and that would be my preference. I would also add some pasta to the mix (Ditalini or Pastina). And no Italian soup is complete without shavings of Parmigiano Reggiano and a sprinkle of good olive oil.

I didn't say I could make it. It's just memories from many years ago. :D
 
Jack, I showed the pics to Ruthie and she is intrigued. She asked what seasonings you use for the stock.


I slice the Johnsonville Italian sausages into 1/2" pieces and brown them in 2 tablespoons of olive oil the bottom of the pot. I use Swanson chicken stock and pour it into the pot when the sausage pieces are browned. I add cut up yellow squash, zucchini, 1 yellow onion, 2 stalks of celery, 4 bell peppers-1 red,1 green, 1 orange, 1 yellow. I use minced garlic, onion powder, Lawry's seasoned salt, McCormick's Italian seasoning blend.

I get all that up to a rolling boil then reduce the heat to simmering and cook covered until the veggies are just tender.

Have a care to not over cook it. The veggies get mushy and it's game over. ;)

NOTE: A nice loaf of French or Italian bread goes well with it.
And a bottle of your favorite Merlot don't hurt it none either. ;) ;)
