Instant Pot Tuscan Bean and Sausage Soup

Our recipe for Instant Pot Tuscan Bean and Sausage Soup is reminiscent of Italian wedding soup but is even easier since you're adding chicken sausage instead of making meatballs. Cannellini beans and kale give it extra goodness while Swanson Chicken Broth, garlic, onion, and Italian seasoning give this soup fabulous flavor.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • ½ pound Italian-style chicken sausage, casings removed

  • 1 ½ cups diced onion

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (15 ounce) can white kidney beans (cannellini), rinsed and drained

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 1 (32 ounce) carton Swanson® Chicken Broth (4 cups)

  • 3 cups finely chopped kale leaves

  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. On a 6-quart Instant Pot, select the Saute setting. Heat the oil. Add the sausage and cook for 10 minutes or until well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Press Cancel.

  2. Add the onion, garlic, beans, Italian seasoning, and Swanson Chicken Broth. Lock the lid and close the pressure release valve. Pressure cook on High pressure, setting the timer to 3 minutes (timer will begin counting down once pressure is reached- it takes about 10 minutes).

  3. When done, press Cancel and use the quick-release method to release the pressure.

  4. Stir in the kale and let stand for 5 minutes. Season to taste and sprinkle with the cheese.

Cook's Note:

Trim kale leaves from stems before finely chopping.

Thai Ginger Chicken (Gai Pad King)

Thai Ginger Chicken (Gai Pad King)

My family loved ordering this Thai ginger chicken (gai pad king) dish at our local Thai restaurant, but they closed for some unknown reason (they were always busy). So, I decided to recreate this traditional dish at home. My husband says it's just like the restaurant...maybe even better. Please note that some people like to eat the ginger, while others don't, but like the flavor it adds. You can easily double this recipe to serve a larger group...plus it makes great leftovers.

Braised Broccoli and Porcini with Polenta

Braised Broccoli and Porcini with Polenta

Braising isn't just for meat. This recipe gently cooks broccoli and porcini mushrooms in a rich sauce to bring out their natural flavors. Served over hot, creamy polenta, this is a plant-based meal that will warm you and keep you full through cold winter nights. Serve with a hearty red wine.

Not-So-Sweet Baked Ham

Not-So-Sweet Baked Ham

This is an easy baked ham that doesn't have the traditional sticky-sweet, brown sugar glaze. I like my ham to taste like ham, and I like my recipes to be easy. This simple recipe is made with just ham and chicken broth for a more savory version that's just as delicious.

Coconut Overnight Oats

Coconut Overnight Oats

These creamy coconut overnight oats have a great flavor and a boost of protein from Greek yogurt and chia seeds. I topped them with cacao nibs and almonds, but feel free to use fresh fruit or any other topping. Add honey or maple syrup if you like them sweeter.
