Italian sausage and tomato soup

Andreas Trauttmansdorff

Ingredients

  • 2 mild or hot Italian sausages

  • vegetable oil

  • 284-mL can undiluted tomato soup

  • 1 tsp dried dill

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1/4 cup orzo or quick-cooking rice

  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

  • chopped fresh basil, or parsley (optional)

Instructions

  • Cut sausages in half. Lightly coat a large saucepan with oil, then set over medium heat. Squeeze meat from casings into pan (discard casings). Using a fork, stir frequently to keep meat crumbly and cook until no longer pink, 5 minutes. Then stir in soup with 2 cans of water, dillweed and paprika. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Add orzo. Stir often until tender, about 5 minutes. Add frozen vegetables. Stir often until hot, 3 minutes. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with basil.
