Root Vegetable Soup With Sausage Recipes

SAUSAGE AND VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Take the sausage meat out of the casings and crumble it into a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain a bit of the fat, leaving some in for flavor. I prep as I go along, so I chop the onion and get the other ingredients started as the sausage cooks.
• Add the onion, celery, and garlic to the pot. Continue cooking it for another 5 minutes. Meanwhile, chop any remaining ingredients.
• Add in the chicken broth, water, carrots, potatoes, red pepper, and corn. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
• Season with salt & pepper as needed.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE SOUP

• In a stockpot or Dutch oven, brown sausage with garlic. Stir in broth, tomatoes and carrots, and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes.
• Stir in beans with liquid and zucchini. Cover, and simmer another 15 minutes, or until zucchini is tender.
• Remove from heat, and add spinach. Replace lid allowing the heat from the soup to cook the spinach leaves. Soup is ready to serve after 5 minutes.

SAUSAGE, CABBAGE & ROOT VEGETABLE SOUP RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring frequently, until well browned, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel to drain. Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, onion, garlic, salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add carrots, turnips, celery root and potato and cook, stirring once or twice, until starting to get tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add cabbage; cook until starting to wilt, about 2 minutes. Return the sausage to the pot and stir in broth, wine, tomato, rosemary and thyme. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover and cook for 1 hour. Uncover and simmer for 15 minutes to reduce the broth and intensify the flavor of the soup. Taste and add more pepper if desired. Serve topped with Parmesan. Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
