Creamy Sausage Tomato Soup
This was supposed to be a simple recipe I just quickly threw together. Then I took a bite and knew you would love it, too.
The recipe is easy to prepare, and it’s packed full of flavor in every single spoonful.
Oh, and the best thing about this recipe? You can mix and match the ingredients to make it work with your pallet. Perfect, right?
Danny from Dance Into Love has a lot of fun making simple soup recipes. He has a really busy schedule, so finding fun fresh ways to throw some of his favorite ingredients into a soup pot is a plus.
When Shawna and Danny first started dating, he made an amazing chicken tortilla soup.
Shawna still raves about that recipe, and actually, Danny makes it for her almost every single month now.
I wonder what Shawna will think about this delicious new soup recipe?
My guess, she’ll flash those gorgeous green eyes and beg him to make it once a month, too.
Like I said up above, I didn’t plan for this recipe to be on the blog.
It’s just too good though.
I really hope you enjoy it just as much as we did.
You definitely don’t need to use sausage. Chicken or even extra veggies would be amazing with all the delicious ingredients. Have fun with the recipe.
At the time I’m writing this lovely recipe, it’s officially soup season. Now, for me personally, soup season is all year long.
Are you ready to grab a bowl and enjoy the soup together!

Creamy Sausage Tomato Soup
Recipe by Terra Kelly
Prep: 15-20 minutes
Cook: 30-40 minutes
Makes: 6-8 servings
Ingredients
1 lb ground spicy sausage, browned
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion (1/2 cup), diced
2 medium carrots, diced
3 stalks of celery, diced
4 oz cream cheese
1 cup heavy cream (or favorite milk)
32 oz tomato soup
15 oz sliced mushrooms
15 oz diced spicy tomatoes
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and Pepper
Optional
Red pepper flakes
Hot sauce
Directions
Brown sausage in soup pot over medium-high heat. Remove browned sausage from pan and set aside.
Leave all the remnants of the browned sausage in the pan, add onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. Let the vegetables cook for about 5 minutes. You want the onions to be translucent and the vegetables to be partially cooked (they don’t need to be soft).
Next, add the cream cheese and let the cream cheese melt and mix into the vegetables.
Now add the rest of the ingredients, heavy cream, tomato soup, mushrooms, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Let the ingredients cook together. Bring the soup to a boil and then move it down to medium to low heat and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes (you can let it cook longer to bring the ingredients together a little bit more).
Time to enjoy!
You can top your soup with sour cream, cheese, hot sauce, and/or chopped fresh parsley. Get creative with YOUR bowl of soup.
Note: This soup can be easily interchanged. You can remove the protein or switch to a different protein.
