Notes

To ensure your Creamy Tuscan Ravioli Soup turns out perfectly, here are a few helpful tips:

– Choose the right ravioli: Opt for a high-quality fresh or frozen cheese-filled ravioli to complement the rich, creamy broth.

– Cook the sausage thoroughly: Make sure to brown the sausage completely, breaking it apart as it cooks, to develop maximum flavor.

– Adjust creaminess to your liking: Add more or less heavy cream to achieve your desired level of creaminess.

– Experiment with extra veggies: Feel free to add other greens, such as kale or chard, or even diced carrots or zucchini to boost the nutrition.

– Store leftovers properly: Refrigerate any leftover soup in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat gently before serving.
