Ingredients

  • ½ pound bulk Italian sausage

  • ¼ cup butter

  • ½ cup chopped yellow onion

  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 ½ cups unsalted chicken broth (such as Swanson)

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1 (16 ounce) package potato gnocchi

  • ½ cup chopped spinach

  • ½ cup canned diced tomatoes

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (or more to taste)

Directions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground sausage and cook, breaking it up into small pieces, until browned, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Drain and discard grease; wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.

  2. Add butter to the skillet and melt over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in flour until evenly mixed with melted butter, about 1 minute. Slowly pour in chicken broth and cream; whisk until mixture comes to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low. Simmer until mixture thickens, whisking occasionally, about 10 minutes.

  3. Return sausage to the skillet; add gnocchi, spinach, and tomatoes. Increase the heat to medium and cook until gnocchi is heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.

Cook’s Note

This is a fast comfort soup. Since the sausage is already spicy, the Swanson unsalted chicken broth works very well, allowing for all the flavors to come through. Any other vegetables can be added to one's own tastes!
