The BEST Sausage Soup!

Last winter I made a really awesome sausage soup, but the pasta made it far from Paleo so I decided it was time to recreate it to make it Paleo-friendly. I got the idea from Paleo Mama. I used most of her ingredients, just different amounts and I added a few things of my own/changed the cooking process up some. Before I share the recipe, let me just say that I normally don't eat more than one serving of anything, but I went back for seconds tonight! It's even better than my original sausage soup! It's extremely easy to make and SO tasty! Even if you don't follow Paleo, this is a perfect winter soup! It's so creamy and delicious!

two pounds of sweet italian sausage
one sweet onion finely diced
one large can of crushed tomatoes
lots of basil, parsley and oregano (and I mean LOTS!)
one can of coconut milk
chicken broth
several cloves of garlic chopped into small pieces (I put the cloves in my food processor to chop)
coconut oil (olive oil would work just fine)
salt and pepper to taste


Brown the italian sausage in coconut (or olive) oil in a medium sized soup pot.
While meat is browning, put crushed tomatoes, coconut milk and spices into your blender (or food processor) and blend until well combined.
Add onions and garlic to the sausage and cook until onions are tender.

Add tomato/coconut milk/spice mixture to your pot and stir, then add chicken broth. I really don't know how much I added, I just added until it was the soupy consistency that I wanted it to be. You don't want it to be TOO runny, the creaminess is what makes this soup!

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Cook on low for 20-25 minutes, stirring often.

This soup is SO good! I know it's going to be a regular in our house this winter!

I have lots of other recipes to share, but I just haven't had time. I'll catch up one of these days! For now, I need to go make another key lime pie... YUM!!
