Instant Pot (IP) 6 quart

Serves 10 – 12

RV Recipe Ingredients

19 oz                mild Italian sausage

19 oz                 hot Italian sausage

8 oz                   uncooked, bacon

64 oz                 organic chicken broth

1/2                     red onion, diced (or substitute 1 tsp onion powder)

2 cloves             garlic, minced (or substitute 1 tsp garlic powder)

1/2 – 2/3 tsp    red pepper flakes

1/2 – 2/3 tsp    Montreal steak seasoning (or substitute black pepper and a few dashes of sea salt)

1/2 – 2/3 tsp    dried basil flakes or spice

1/2 – 2/3 tsp    dried oregano or spice

4                         6″ (med/large) russet potatoes, rinsed, peeled, diced

5 oz bag            baby spinach, prewashed

1 cup                 heavy cream or half and half

1 cup                 shaved or freshly grated parmesan cheese

RV Recipe Directions

  1.  Remove sausage from casings.  Cut or divide each link into 6 pieces, set aside.
  2.  Cut each strip of bacon into 4 equal slices then place in Instant Pot on SAUTE' mode.  Stir as needed for a minute or 2 then add diced fresh onion, stir again for a minute then add freshly minced garlic. Stir for a minute. 
  3.  Add sausage pieces and seasonings, stir until lightly browned.
  4.   Add chicken broth, stir.  Turn IP off.
  5.   Peel rinsed potatoes, cut them in half lengthwise then slice into 1/4 inch (half moon) slices.
  6.  Add potatoes to the IP but DO NOT stir.
  7.  Close IP lid and steam vent.  Set heat to MANUAL 5 minutes.  Allow the IP to natural release for 10 minutes, then open the steam valve for a quick release of the remainder of steam.
  8.  Open the IP, remove 1 – 2 cups of potatoes from the pot and lightly puree using the back of a fork.  Return the potatoes to the IP and stir.
  9.  Add the baby spinach and stir.
  10.  Add the heavy cream or half and half, stir.  The mixture may thicken ever so slightly due to the starch of the potato but this soup is actually more broth-like.
  11.  Pour individual servings into bowls and top with freshly grated parmesan.
