Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pound Italian sausage, casing removed
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 1 carrot, diced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 28 ounces canned diced tomatoes
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 2 medium zucchini, sliced into half moons
• 2 cups spinach, roughly chopped
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 0.5 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes. Remove sausage from the pot and set aside.

Step 2

In the same pot, add minced garlic, diced onion, chopped celery, and diced carrot. Sauté until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes until it begins to darken in color.

Step 4

Add in the canned diced tomatoes, chicken broth, sliced zucchini, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.

Step 5

Return the cooked sausage to the pot. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Step 6

Add the chopped spinach and simmer for another 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

Step 7

In a separate small bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, grated parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh basil.

Step 8

To serve, ladle the hot soup into bowls. Top each serving with a dollop of the ricotta cheese mixture and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese if desired.

Step 9

Garnish with additional fresh basil before serving if you wish.
