Souping makes me happy, and you should always do what makes you happy, right? I mean, unless what makes you happy is being a jerk, in which case, make the world a kinder place instead and just make soup! :-)
And, if you need a good one, maybe give this yummy Italian selection a try? This was one of those soups that was solidly 4.5 stars (i.e., better than 4, but not quite 5), but I don't usually give half scores. So, since I could think of a couple of improvements, I scored it a 4 with room to get even better. Enjoy!
This recipe came from: https://www.eatwell101.com/sausage-parmesan-cream-cheese-soup-recipe
Variations from Recipe as Written: I doubled the recipe. I used Mild Italian sausage (instead of my usual Hot) because one of my diners is sensitive to spice. And, I used canned petite diced tomatoes rather than fresh Romas.
General Thoughts: The prep on this one was really easy! The only chopping was an onion, and my friend Lisa did that for me, so the rest was just adding things to the Instant Pop. It should be noted that this recipe does not make very much; I doubled it, but there was barely a serving leftover after feeding only six adults (who had plenty of other food - bread, salad, etc. - to eat, too). So, plan accordingly!
Potential Improvements? As I mentioned above, some croutons for texture would have been brilliant, and I'd prefer Hot sausage (rather than Mild). Finally, next time, I'd like to try dicing some fresh Roma tomatoes (nice firm ones!) instead of using the canned diced toms.
Verdict: Liked it. (4 stars)
