I’m a complete and utter fool for sausage and sausage recipes – ground sausage, sausage links, brats… You name it, I’m there with fork in hand. The Original Brat Hans brand by Coleman Natural Foods is a favorite. They’re as outstanding grilled outdoors as they are prepared indoors.
You’ll also love them to distraction in recipes. The delicious recipe below calls for Hans All Natural Pork Sausage and will produce a soup you’ll never forget. And the people you share it with will never stop talking about it.
Serve this wonderful soup with breadsticks or fried cornbread for bonus points and extra smiles.
Bow Tie Sausage Soup Recipe
1 package Hans All Natural Pork Sausage
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
6 cups organic chicken broth
2 1/2 to 3 cups bow tie pasta
1 15-oz can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
Cut natural or organic sausage into slices and put in large covered pot with onion and garlic; cook until sausage is brown. Drain off any fat.
Stir in organic chicken broth, uncooked pasta, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, basil and thyme. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 20 minutes or until pasta is tender, stirring occasionally.
