Sausage Cream Pasta Soup (Print)

A cozy dish of creamy Parmesan soup featuring tender pasta and flavorful sausage. Quick and easy to whip up for any weeknight meal.

# Ingredients:

01 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
02 - 4 cups chicken stock.
03 - 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, petite cut.
04 - 1/2 teaspoon salt.
05 - 8 oz softened cream cheese.
06 - 1/2 cup Parmesan, shredded.
07 - 1/4 cup basil, fresh.
08 - 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped.
09 - 1 teaspoon seasoning blend (Italian).
10 - 1/2 cup diced onion.
11 - 8 oz ditalini pasta.
12 - 1 pound sausage, Italian style.

# Steps:

01 - Let the pasta cook for 8 minutes or until it's tender but still firm.
02 - Stir in soft cream cheese and Parmesan for 5 minutes so they melt.
03 - Toss in onions, pepper, salt, and seasoning. Let them cook for about 1-2 minutes.
04 - In a Dutch oven, cook the sausage until it's browned and fully done. Skim off the grease.
05 - Sprinkle fresh basil leaves on top before eating.
06 - Turn the heat down to medium after boiling.
07 - Add chicken stock, tomatoes, and dry pasta. Make sure the pasta is totally covered.
08 - Mix in minced garlic and let it cook for another minute.

# Notes:

01 - Don't overcook the pasta—stop at al dente since it'll keep softening in the hot broth.
02 - Cutting cream cheese into smaller chunks helps it melt quicker.
