    Tomato Florentine with Italian Sausage Soup Recipe

    I have my go-to soups, which I'm pretty sure everyone does. Right? Those soups that you keep in regular rotation for your dinner plans or that you always get when you go to certain restaurants? I have some pretty good staples in my life when it comes to soups. My homemade chicken noodle soup which is an adaptation from my mother-in-law's recipe (sorry, that one is staying a family secret, but I know how much my friends and family love it!), the tortilla soup from Alamo Cafe (if you've had it, you know... YOU KNOW), the broccoli cheddar soup from McAlister's, my homemade taco soup (so easy and simple), among some others. You get the point!

    So in one of my moods where I decide I'm going to do minimal cooking for a few days, which usually comes after some insane cooking extravaganza, I came across a version of this soup. It had a little less spice and used regular pasta instead of tortellini, but it was still okay. I happened to order it for lunch one day through Favor and I can't even remember where it was from. P.S. if you haven't tried Favor, you should! You can use my code KARAM3X for $5 off your first order. Fair warning, it can be pretty addicting being able to have anything delivered to your door! I knew it could be better and with way more flavor so I decided to experiment and see if I could take it up a notch.

    Well, it was a success. I now have another soup that's going to be in regular rotation in my house! It's super simple, ingredients that are regularly at my house, and super flavorful. But hey, don't make the mistake I did and decide to taste it while it's simmering because then you end up with a scorched tongue and a whole lot less taste buds!

    How to Store, Freeze, and Reheat Tomato Florentine Soup

    To store tomato florentine soup, allow it to cool completely. Place it in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or the freezer for up to 6 months. To reheat, I recommend adding it to a saucepan and heating over medium heat. You may need to add additional broth if the pasta has absorbed most of it.

    A completely underrated recipe on the blog is this Smoked Turkey Pepper Jack Quesadilla. It’s not a typical quesadilla and it has a surprising ingredient you might not expect 😁

    This pineapple pico de gallo is a staple for me in the summer because it’s a perfect combo of sweet and spicy. It goes really great with chicken and fish, but my favorite is eating it with lime tortilla chips 😍😍😍

    This Greek Pasta Salad takes traditional pasta salad we're all familiar with and swaps the regular pasta for tortellini and the dressing for a Greek-style favorite. It's easy to make, makes the perfect side dish (hello Greek Turkey Burgers!), and you can make it 3-4 days in advance. A total win/win.
