Spicy, tomatoey and done in 30 minutes. Hot Italian sausage is browned with onion and garlic, simmered with tomatoes, oregano and basil, then finished with fresh spinach and Parmesan. It's from our soup-for-every-cold-night post.

Taste before you add the second teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Hot sausage already brings some heat.

Good to know

About the photo. It shows sliced sausage. The recipe crumbles it, which spreads the flavor through the whole pot.

Leftovers keep in the fridge for 3 days and taste even better the next day.
