Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 pound Italian Sausage *I used turkey sausage
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1 tsp. dried rosemary
- 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
- 2 cups Simple Truth chicken broth
- 2 cups half & half
- 1 can Simple Truth diced tomatoes *drained
- 3 Tbsp. Simple Truth butter
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 cups chopped fresh spinach
- 1 pound gnocchi
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch Oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add Italian Sausage (casings removed), chopped onion, garlic, and seasonings.
- Cook, breaking up the sausage as you go, until onion is translucent and sausage is fully cooked.
- Add chicken broth, half & half, and drained diced tomatoes.
- In a separate small saucepan, melt 3 Tbsp. butter over medium-low heat. Stir in 1/4 cup flour and cook, stirring constantly, 3-5 minutes until mixture is bubbly and a thick paste (roux) forms.
- Stir the roux into the soup and bring the mixture to a low boil, stirring regularly. Soup will thicken.
- Add gnocchi and chopped spinach and lower heat to a simmer. Simmer 5 minutes.
Notes
*For a thinner soup, you can either omit the roux or add 1-2 cups additional chicken broth.
