Ingredients
1 tbsp ghee
454g (454g) hot Italian sausages, casings removed
6 cups chicken bone broth, divided
3 celery stalks, diced
½ cup diced onions
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cauliflower florets, cut into ½-inch pieces
1 cup diced zucchini
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 tsp minced fresh rosemary
1 tsp minced fresh sage
1 tsp minced fresh thyme
½ tsp fine sea salt
½ tsp ground black pepper
½ cup pizza sauce, homemade
1 bay leaf
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions
- In a Dutch oven or stockpot, melt the ghee over medium heat. Cook for about 6 minutes, breaking up the sausage into small chunks as it browns. Remove the sausage from the pot with a slotted spoon when it is fully cooked. Place it in a mixing bowl and set it aside.
- Scrape the bottom of the pot with a spatula to deglaze it with 1/4 cup of the chicken broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until the celery, onions, and garlic are translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Combine the cauliflower, zucchini, bell pepper, herbs, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Combine the remaining broth, pizza sauce, and bay leaf in a mixing bowl. Simmer for 8 minutes on medium heat. Cook for another 10 minutes after adding the cooked sausage. If necessary, taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Remove the bay leaf and set it aside. If desired, garnish the soup with chopped parsley.
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat for a few minutes over medium heat, or until warmed through.
