How to Make Italian Greens And Beans With Sausage Variation
- Brown 1 lb Italian sausage (removed from casings) in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Remove sausage from pot and set aside.
- Add 1 large onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 4 cups vegetable broth, 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans (drained and rinsed), 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer.
- Add 1 bunch of kale or spinach (about 10 ounces), chopped, and 1 cup chopped escarole. Simmer until greens are wilted, about 10 minutes.
- Return the sausage to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping, if desired.
