Hearty Italian white bean vegetable soup with sausage is a deliciously healthy Tuscan soup recipe. An easy Italian vegetable soup that’s anything but short on flavor and packed full of nutrition for a complete wholesome meal served as lunch or dinner!

Cold weather brings warm casseroles, creamy pastas, and delicious baked goods but it also brings heart-warming soups which happen to be my absolute favorite…

Gimme a cup of soup and some grilled cheese and I’m one happy camper.

However, as much as I love a creamy tomato soup, if I’m making soup for lunch or dinner it’s got to be chock full with veggies and protein otherwise I’m hungry again after 30 minutes.

That’s why this Italian vegetable soup made it to the top of my favorite soup recipes.

Easy and delicious, this healthy Italian vegetable soup recipe makes an awesome dinner or lunch recipe because it’s filled with vegetables plus creamy white beans and flavorful Italian sausage.

Speaking of Italian, my mother is one of the best Italian cooks out there. Well, she’s the best cook period but happens to be half Italian and sure does cook like she’s full Italian. I’m talking like, “Do you think I have enough food?” as she’s got a 5-course meal spread out for 5 people.

Does that sound familiar with any fellow Italians?

Hey! I’m not complaining!!!

Anyways, she made this delicious soup a couple of weeks ago, and naturally had a container of leftovers set aside for me. As I’m on my lunch break I text her to ask her for the recipe because it was SOOO GOOD and of course she has no idea because she wings pretty much every recipe she makes and it always comes out bomb diggity.

So this is my version of her soup creation since she was no help (LOL, just kidding mom).
