Creamy Parmesan Italian Sausage Soup

In a large pot, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.

2. Sauté the Vegetables

Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Stir in fennel and red pepper flakes, if using, to enhance the flavor.

3. Add Broth and Main Ingredients

Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil.

Add diced potatoes or pasta and simmer until tender, about 10–15 minutes.

4. Make It Creamy

Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the soup is rich and creamy.

5. Serve
