The kids love this quick dinner. You'll need:
One package Hillshire Farm Sweet Italian Sausage
One package fresh spinach
One large can chicken broth
Six potatoes
1/2 cup milk or cream

Since the seasoning for the whole soup comes from the sausage, it is important to get the right kind of sausage. Sweet Italian Sausage will give it the same flavor as the popular Olive Garden soup.

Place the sausage on a baking sheet (if you line with tin foil, clean up will be easy). If they are thawed, remove the skins before baking. If they are frozen, you can remove the casing after they are baked. Bake at 350 for about 1/2 hour - until the sausage begin to split and boil. While they are baking, peel and slice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Boil in a large pot with just enough water to cover them (important to not use too much water). When the potatoes are done (about 20 minutes) add the whole can of chicken broth to the potatoes and water and bring to a boil again. Once boiling, shut off the burner completely. Add the whole package of spinach (stems removed if these will bother you) and cover to wilt the spinach. While these are wilting, chop the baked sausage. Add sausage to soup. Add 1/2 cup milk or cream and stir. Once the spinach and cream are added, do not boil the soup, although you can keep it warm on low heat.
