This is a quick and easy soup with Italian turkey sausage, white beans, and spinach. It is full of flavor and nice and healthy. It takes less than an hour to prep, prepare, cook, and serve. It’s a go-to recipe for a weekday winter filling meal.

Quick and Healthy Soup

This Italian white bean soup is one of my favorites when I’m looking for a hearty soup. The cannellini beans and the sausage make this a high-protein meal with about 35g per serving. It is also high in fiber. It’s also a great gluten-free soup. You can make it vegan or vegetarian. Simply swap the turkey sausage for a plant-based sausage. Use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock.
