My mom gave me this recipe a few years back, and it quickly became a family favorite. It’s very flavorful and hearty.
Ingredients:
1 pound bulk italian sausage
1 large onion, sliced
2 celery ribs, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
5 cups water
2 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 medium carrots, sliced
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
1 bay leaf
2 medium zucchini, sliced
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven over medium heat, cook the sausage, onion and celery until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
2. Add the water, potatoes, tomatoes, carrots and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in zucchini; simmer 8-10 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender. Discard bay leaf. Yield: 10 servings (2-1/2 quarts).
