Ingredients:
1 lb Italian sausage (sweet or spicy)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, drained
2 quarts chicken stock
½ cup heavy cream

Instructions:
Heat a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Remove from the pot and set aside, leaving the flavorful drippings.
In the same pot, drizzle in olive oil. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant and golden, about 3–4 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken stock, and browned sausage. Bring everything to a gentle boil.
Lower the heat to a simmer, then add heavy cream, ditalini pasta, dried basil, and oregano. Cook until the pasta is al dente and the soup has slightly thickened.
Taste and adjust with salt and black pepper. Serve hot, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of parsley for a beautiful, flavorful finish.
