Ingredients

  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 cup onion diced
  • 1 cup celery diced
  • 2 cups zucchini diced
  • 2 cups bell peppers diced, around one large pepper
  • 1 cup carrots diced
  • 32 ounces vegetable broth
  • 14.5 ounces petite diced tomatos 1 can
  • 10 ounces Rotel orginal 1 can

Instructions

  • First, in a large stock pot, brown the Italian sausage with the diced onions and celery until no longer pink, and drain off excess grease. *Add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to the pan that is not non-stick to prevent sticking and burning.
  • Then add the diced zucchini, peppers, and carrots with the vegetable broth, petite diced tomatoes, and a can of Rotel. Mix and bring to a boil. Cover with a lid and simmer on medium heat with a good boil for 10-15 minutes or until the vegetables are all tender. Stir occasionally. Be careful not to overcook the zucchini.
    Serve with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese and crackers. Enjoy!
