Italian wedding soup, with a twist

0

This recipe is a twist to the classic Italian wedding soup, using everything you can find in your pantry or nearest grocery store. It is understandable that we, as students, do not have time to make everything from scratch, so this is the perfect way to throw everything that can be conveniently found into a pot and let it simmer. This aromatic and flavourful soup gets better with time.

Tools 

A large soup pot 

Ingredients 

2 hot Italian sausages (must be the type with sausage casing) 

2 cups of spinach

1 ½ cups of pasta (any pasta not in noodle form, e.g., farfalle, shells, etc.)

½ cup of frozen vegetable mix 

2 cups of chicken broth

1 whole white onion (roughly chopped)

Black pepper 

Olive oil

Instructions 

Begin by chopping the onion in quarters. Prepare the sausage by removing the sausage filling from the casing and rolling it into small half-inch balls. Once rolled, cook them in olive oil until the outer layer is golden brown. Combine with onions and frozen vegetable mix, and cook until the onions soften. Add the chicken broth and spinach until the spinach softens. Finish the soup with some black pepper. 

This recipe yields a beautiful pot of soup that can last you for the entire week. So snuggle up with a good book, blanket, a warm bowl of comforting Italian wedding soup, and enjoy!
