Italian sausage soup:

1 pkg Italian sausage
1-2 medium yellow onions
3-4 medium to small zucchini
1 green pepper
2-3 minced garlic cloves or tbs.minced garlic
4-6 cans of diced/crushed tomatoes (can use tomatoes w/jalapenos)
1 small can tomato paste
1 can beef or chicken stock (can use water) to cover contents of pot.
4+ tablespoons Italian seasoning
Crushed red pepper to taste
Salt and pepper to taste

Cook sausage. I have boiled and then cut into pieces as well as taking the casings off and sauté’ into smaller pieces. Set aside. Cut into small pieces and sauté onions and green pepper. Cut Zucchini width-wise into half inch to 1/3” pieces. Add all ingredients to large pot, bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. (About 45-min1 hour) Serve with good bread or garlic toast. (Great source of Licopene). This recipe is similar to chili….it always tastes better the second day.
