### **Tips for Perfect Italian Sausage Soup**
– **Use High-Quality Sausage**: The sausage is the star of the dish, so choose a good-quality Italian sausage with lots of flavor. You can go for either mild or spicy sausage, depending on your preference.
– **Add More Veggies**: If you love veggies, feel free to add more to the mix! Bell peppers, tomatoes, or even sweet potatoes work beautifully in this soup.
– **Make it Creamier**: For a creamier version of this soup, add a splash of heavy cream or whole milk during the last few minutes of simmering.
– **Adjust the Heat**: If you like your soup spicy, increase the amount of red pepper flakes or use spicy sausage. For a milder version, stick with the mild sausage and reduce the pepper flakes.
– **Storage**: This soup is perfect for leftovers. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. The flavors actually improve the next day!
– **Freezing**: You can also freeze this soup for up to 3 months. Just let it cool completely before transferring it to a freezer-safe container. When ready to serve, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat on the stove.
### **Serving Suggestions**
