Dave’s Amazing Soup

5 – Links spicy Italian Sausage.
2 – Big cans of Chicken Broth.
1-2 Jalapeños
8 – Pearl Onions
½ bunch Cilantro
1 bunch of spinach
¼ cup dices Fennel
1 - Package diced mushrooms
2 – Zucchini
2 packages of (or 1 really big one) portobello mushroom and parmesan tortellini.


In large pot (I use a lobster pot) add the Chicken Broth (I add about 1 ½ cans at first, then add more later if necessary) diced Italian sausage, diced and de-seeded jalapeños, fennel (. I use the bottom which is like celery. I cut it really really fine, and chop it up. This is just for flavor) and cilantro. Bring this to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes, then add the quartered pearl onions. Cook this another 15-20 minutes. Add the zucchini cut in bite sized pieces, and the mushrooms. Cook this another 5 minutes or so until the zucchini is cooked. Add chopped spinach and cook another 2 minutes. Pepper to taste.
