Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
  • 1 pound ground chicken or turkey sausage
  • 2–1/4 cups mirepoix (3/4 cup diced carrots, 3/4 cup diced celery, 3/4 cup diced yellow onion)
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans diced tomatoes (fire-roasted preferred)
  • 2 (32-ounce) cartons reduced-sodium beef broth or chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups uncooked miniature farfalle pasta
  • 4 cups fresh baby spinach (coarsely chopped, lightly packed when measured)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add ground sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  2. Drain excess grease from the pot, leaving 1 tablespoon. Add remaining olive oil and sauté mirepoix for 5–7 minutes until tender. Stir in garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  3. Pour in diced tomatoes and broth; stir in herbs, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bring to a boil; add pasta and cook uncovered for 7–9 minutes until tender. Return cooked sausage to the pot with spinach; cook until spinach wilts.
