Sausage and Spinach Tortellini Soup image

My husband's grandmother used to make this soup with her own homemade sausage and tortellini. Since the recipe has been passed down, we don't hand make those ingredients, but this version is almost as good as hers. It's also an excellent way to get the kids to eat spinach!-Joyce Lulewicz, Brunswick, Ohio

Sausage, Spinach and Potato Tart image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Time 2h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 tablespoons butter (1 1/2 sticks), cold and sliced into chunks
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon cold water
1 small Yukon gold potato, finely diced
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces bulk mild or sweet Italian pork sausage
3 cups fresh baby spinach
Freshly ground black pepper
4 green onions, sliced
3 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 cup grated gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • For the dough: Add flour and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter to the bowl and pulse until the mixture looks like crumbly sand. Add the egg and water and pulse again until the dough comes together.
  • Very lightly flour the work surface. Dump the dough onto the floured surface and knead a few times until it comes together. Shape the dough into a disc and roll out to a 13-inch circle. Press the dough into the bottom and sides of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Level the edges with your fingers. Prick the bottom of the tart with a fork. Freeze until firm, 25 minutes.
  • For the filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • While the tart is in the freezer, add the potatoes to a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Add a big pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook the potatoes until tender but still with a bit of resistance, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and cool.
  • Lightly drizzle the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, and cook, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon until crumbly and browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the spinach by the handful and stir until it just wilts down. Season the mixture with salt and pepper and stir in the green onions. Remove to a bowl to cool.
  • Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and stir in the milk. Whisk together until combined and then add some salt and pepper.
  • Remove the tart from the freezer. Cover the top with parchment paper and add pie weights or dried beans. Place on a sheet tray and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the pie weights and parchment paper and continue baking for 10 minutes more.
  • Turn the oven temperature down to 350 degrees F.
  • Evenly sprinkle the par-baked tart shell with half of the grated cheese, then the cooked potatoes, and finally top with the sausage and spinach mixture. Pour the eggs over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 45 minutes.
  • Cool the tart for 10 minutes before serving. Can be served warm or at room temperature.

SPINACH AND SAUSAGE SOUP



Spinach and Sausage Soup image

This is a great meal-in-one pot type of soup. I use turkey Italian sausage to cut down on the fat content. We love the Parmesan cheese toasts on top...use a nice crusty bread for those.

Categories     Spinach

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 lb Italian sausage, casings removed, crumbled (sweet or hot)
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 lb spinach, stems trimmed
3 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth
1/2 cup broken pieces capellini (1-inch) or 1/2 cup vermicelli
4 slices French bread, 1/2-inch thick
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons freshly grated parmesan cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Heat a large saucepot over high heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until brown, 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds. Add spinach and broth. Fill one empty can of broth with water; add to pot. Cover and bring mixture to a boil. Add capellini, cover and boil 2 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, heat broiler. Broil bread slices on cookie sheet about 1 minute per side, until toasted. Drizzle each slice with 1 teaspoons oil; sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoons Parmesan cheese.
  • Divide soup among 4 large soup bowls and top each serving with prepared toasts.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and texture than frozen spinach. If you do use frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out any excess water before adding it to the soup.
  • Brown the sausage before adding it to the soup: Browning the sausage adds flavor and helps to keep it from becoming greasy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for spinach, onion, celery, and carrots, but you can also add other vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • Season the soup to your taste: This recipe is a good starting point, but you may want to adjust the seasonings to your liking. Add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder if desired.
  • Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers: This soup is hearty and filling, but it's also delicious served with a side of bread or crackers for dipping.
