Italian Sausage Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb hot Italian sausage
1 small onion, diced
14 ounces chicken broth
15 ounces Italian-style diced tomatoes
15 ounces cannellini beans, drained
1/2 teaspoon oregano
salt
crushed red pepper flakes, to taste (I use a lot)
1 teaspoon garlic, crushed

Preparation

Saute sausage, onion, and garlic in large pot. Drain fat.
Add remaining ingredients and heat through.
Sometimes I add a very small amount of tiny uncooked pasta to thicken.
Serve with toasty crunchy french bread to get every last drop.
