I received "Yum & Yummer" for Christmas from a childhood friend.  This was the third cookbook written by Greta Podleski I had received from this friend, so I knew that the recipes would be fun and yummy to cook/bake.
As I flipped through the cookbook, I started to tag recipes that I wanted to try.  Which one should go first????
"Italian Turkey Sausage, Tomato, & White Bean Soup with Kale" won the draw. 
How many have already noticed that the name of my recipe doesn't match the cookbook title?  Yes I started improvising out of the gate, couldn't find Italian turkey sausage, but found Hemplers hot Italian sausage which has no preservatives instead.  I'm not a fan of kale, so baby spinach was added instead.
This has become a favourite after the first batch.
Italian Sausage, Tomato and White Bean Soup
1 lb hot Italian sausage (Hemplers, no preservatives - Safeway)
½ cup chopped onions
1 ½  cups chopped carrots
1 ½  cups chopped celery
1 Tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
6 cups chicken broth
1 can (14oz) diced tomatoes
1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
½ tsp sea salt and freshly ground pepper
1 bay leaf
1 can (14 oz) cannelloni beans, drained and rinsed
3 cups packed, chopped baby spinach.
  
  1. In a large soup pot over medium high, cook and stir sausage until lightly browned, breaking up any large pieces
  2. Add onions, carrots, celery and garlic.  Cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add Italian seasoning and mix well.
  4. Add broth, tomatoes, tomato paste, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and bay leaf. Bring soup to a boil.  Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  5. Discard bay leaf
  6. Add beans and spinach, simmer for 5 more minutes.

    I learned to cook and improvise from my mother whose motto was "I followed the recipe except for. . ."
    The stories I have captured are my adventures in cooking like mum!
