Ingredients
Meat and Protein
- 1 lb Italian sausage
Vegetables
- 2 cups cauliflower florets
- 1 cup spinach
Liquids and Fats
- 4 cups chicken broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Brown the sausage: Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add broth and cauliflower: Pour in the chicken broth and add the cauliflower florets to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
- Stir in cream and spinach: Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and fresh spinach. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, just until the spinach wilts and the soup is heated through.
Notes
- Top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
- For a spicier soup, use hot Italian sausage or add crushed red pepper flakes.
- Cauliflower can be substituted with broccoli for a slight variation.
- This soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
