Method

Saute sausage, onions and garlic in olive oil. Add rest of ingredients; bring to a boil, turn down heat and simmer at least 1 hour.

 

Notes: This is a not-too-sweet soup. Four cans of diced tomatoes may be substituted for the fresh tomatoes and tomato juice. I think the wine adds zest, but cider vinegar may be substituted.

 

Number of Servings: 8
