Ingredients

Units Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb Italian sausage (mild or spicy), casing removed
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 package (about 20 oz) cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil or parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Brown the Sausage In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and break it up with a spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Sauté Aromatics Add the diced onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, and red pepper flakes (if using), and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Add Liquids and Simmer Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil. Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer uncovered for 5–7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Step 4: Add Ravioli and Tomatoes Stir in the ravioli and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 5–6 minutes (or according to the package instructions), until the ravioli is cooked through and tender.
  5. Step 5: Finish with Spinach and Cheese Turn off the heat and stir in the spinach until wilted. Add the grated Parmesan and stir until melted and incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Step 6: Serve Ladle into bowls, garnish with fresh basil or parsley, and serve hot with crusty bread or salad.

Notes

  • Don’t overcook the ravioli – Add it toward the end so it stays tender and doesn’t fall apart
  • Use fresh spinach – It wilts beautifully and adds nutrients without overpowering the flavor
  • Grate your own Parmesan – For best melting and a nutty flavor boost
  • Add broth if needed – The soup thickens as it sits, so feel free to thin it out with extra broth before serving
