directions

Step 1

Grill the sausages under the broiler or in a grill pan on top of the stove (about 4 minutes per side).

Step 2

In the meantime, in a large soup pot, combine the stock, basil, fennel and simmer.

Step 3

When the sausages are cooked, slice them (thick or thin as you like). In a skillet, sauté onions in a little olive oil until translucent and then add the garlic for a minute or so. Add the sliced sausages, sauté for an additional few minutes, then add to the soup.

Step 4

Add the beans and their juice to the soup and simmer for 10 minutes or so. Add the spinach and simmer for another 5-10 minutes. Taste for seasoning and serve.
