Cooking Steps
  1. Gather your ingredients and finely chop the onion, carrots, and celery. Set a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Once heated, add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Stir occasionally until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add chopped carrots and celery, stirring them in. Pour in chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pot. Bring to a gentle simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to low and gradually stir in the heavy cream until combined. Stir gently for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Fold in fresh spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted.
  6. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top. Serve hot.

Notes

For best results, choose high-quality Italian sausage and allow time for onions to caramelize for increased flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
