Spicy Sicilian/Zucchini soup

2 lbs. PARMA BRAND Spicy Sicilian Sausage (8 links)
2 medium Zucchini (chopped)
1 cup onions (chopped)
1 cup celery (chopped)
6 fresh tomatoes or 2 big cans whole tomatoes
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
4 basil leaves (Fresh)
Salt & pepper to taste
4 cups Water
(optional) 2 diced potatoes
1 chopped green pepper

Remove sausage casing* then brown sausage in a medium saucepan, chunking sausage as you brown. Drain and set aside. Keep about 1 tablespoon of fat. Sauté the onions, then add celery and zucchini. Slightly toss then add all other ingredients, feel free to add diced potatoes and or green peppers to keep everyone filled. Cover and simmer at medium/low heat, stirring occasionally for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are softened. Don't forget fresh crusty bread for dipping.

*To remove casing, put the sausage under warm water for a few seconds and it should come right off, or you can purchase our Loose Sausage which does not have any casing.

Saute onion and garlic with olive oil, add diced tomatoes, allow to combine, add sliced red peppers, stir. Lightly brown sausage slices and add to mixture. A dash of salt and pepper, if needed, and of course a splash of wine for more flavor. This is all done quickly and tossed on penne pasta. Then, add crumbled feta cheese and or Parmesan cheese, sliced black olives and a few fresh basil leaves. It's a beautiful and delicious treat!
