Tuscan Sausage and White Bean Soup


I love making soups when the weather is cold outside. I especially love a soup that is quick, easy and ready in under 30 minutes. When the weekend rolls around we are either really busy or taking it easy and spending a lot of time in the kitchen is usually not on my agenda. So a soup like this is perfect, I can still provide my family with a yummy lunch, but not be stuck in the kitchen.

Tuscan Sausage and White Bean Soup

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound hot Italian sausage
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2-12 ounce can evaporated milk
  • 29 ounces low sodium chicken broth
  • 2-15.5 ounce cans cannellini beans, undrained
  • black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. In a large pot, over medium-high heat, cook the sausage, crumbling it as it cooks. 
  2. Once the sausage it completely cooked, remove the sausage from the pot and set aside. Drain any grease.
  3. Add in the butter and allow to melt. Add in the diced onions and minced garlic and cook stirring occasionally until the onions are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Whisk in the flour and continue to stir constantly for about 1 minute.
  5. Slowly pour in the milk and chicken broth while whisking constantly. 
  6. Allow the mixture to come to a boil, while stirring often. 
  7. Once the mixture has come to a boil add in the sausage and beans. Allow to heat through and season with black pepper.
Enjoy!!!
