Best Black Bean Italian Sausage Soup Recipes

SPICY ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND BLACK BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the Italian sausages in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool; remove all but 1 tablespoon of grease from the pot.
• Stir the garlic, onion, carrot, potato, and celery into the hot fat. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the onion has turned translucent, about 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste until no lumps remain; pour in the red wine. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the liquid has reduced by half, stirring frequently to dissolve the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the beef broth, black beans, and diced tomatoes. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour.
• Cut the cooled sausage into 1/2-inch thick slices. Stir the sausage into the soup along with the rotini pasta, spinach, and dried oregano. Simmer until the pasta is tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the chopped basil and season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

BLACK BEAN & ITALIAN SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• In a large soup pot on medium heat, fry the bacon bits to get some fat to coat the bottom of the pan.
• Add the garlic powder, chopped onion, chopped peppers, and Italian sausage broken up into chunks. Fry on medium heat until the sausage is no longer pink.
• Add the chicken stock, 1/2 tsp of cumin and one can of black beans. Simmer covered for 30 minutes.
• Use an immersion blender to blend some of the soup so that there are still lots of unblended chunks--about 10-15 seconds on high.
• Add the other can of drained, rinsed beans and 1/2 tsp of cumin.
• Season with salt, pepper and/or pepper flakes if you like it spicy.
• Simmer for another 10 minutes.
• *Serve with a dollop of sour cream if desired. I also serve it over a couple of tablespoons of leftover rice or pasta in each bowl to make it a hearty meal.
