Sausage, Potato, and Spinach Soup

What you need:

• 1 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 lb. spicy Italian sausage
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp. dried basil
• 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 5 cups chicken broth
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 lb. red potatoes, diced
• 3 cups baby spinach (I used quite a bit and have no problem adding a ton since it wilts down)
• 1/4 cup heavy cream

Directions:

1. In a large stockpot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sausage. Crumble and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
2. Add garlic, onion, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes. Stir often while cooking for about 2 to 3 minutes until onions are translucent. Salt and pepper to taste.
3. Add chicken broth and bay leaf, then bring to a boil.
4. Once boiling, add potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.
5. Add spinach and stir until it wilts. Then stir in heavy cream and cook for another minute.
