What's the best part about a comforting bowl of this spicy sausage and bean soup recipe? Could it be that it's so chock-full of hearty ingredients that it's an easy main-dish soup...meaning we don't have to make another thing for dinner?!

What You'll Need

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 pound bulk hot sausage (see Note)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 (15-1/2-ounce) cans Great Northern beans, undrained
  • 2 (14-ounce) cans ready-to-use chicken broth
  • 1 (14-1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. In a large soup pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, onion, and garlic; cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until no pink remains in the sausage, stirring frequently to break up the meat.
     
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.

Note

I like this soup spicy, but if you prefer to use a mild sausage, or even turkey sausage, go ahead. Make it your own!
