Servings: 10
Ingredients
- 1 pound smoked sausage diced or chopped
- 1 cup sweet onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 packet Knorr Vegetable soup mix
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 31 ounces great Northern beans drained, rinsed
- 29 ounces seasoned turnip greens not drained
- 2 cups short pasta cooked al dente, drained (I like ditalini or any small tube pasta)
Instructions
- In a large soup pot, over medium heat, add the diced sausage and onion.
- Cook 3-4 minutes or until the sausage is starting to brown and the onions start to soften.
- Add the garlic and stir. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add the soup mix, broth, beans, and greens. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
- Simmer over low until the greens are tender and the soup mix is rehydrated.
- 10 minutes before serving, add in the cooked pasta.
- Season with salt and pepper if desired. (taste before adding salt as the greens and soup mix can have enough)
- Serve with a dash of hot sauce and a slice of cornbread or hush puppies.
Notes
- Prep ahead: Cook sausage and onions in olive oil ahead of time. Freeze or keep in fridge until ready to use.
- Greens shortcut: Can't find frozen turnip greens? Try canned, seasoned greens from Margaret Holmes.
- Tomato variation: Add tomato sauce instead of soup mix for different flavor profile
- Bean substitute: Replace beans with ribs of celery for similar consistency and taste.
