The tomato-y broth, brimming with sausage and pasta, melts the mix of cheeses placed in each bowl before serving. A quick swirl of the spoon ensures diners will get a bit of gooey cheese in every bite.

Directions

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 1 12 pounds Italian Sausage
  • 12 cup Onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons Oregano
  • 12 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 28 ounces Diced Tomatoes
  • 6 cups Chicken Broth
  • 2 bay leaves

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and sauté, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until the sausage is no longer pink, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the pot. Add the onions and sauté until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes and sauté for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and sauté until the paste turns a rusty brown, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juice, the broth, and the bay leaves and bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
