This isn’t just soup—it’s a hug in a bowl, where golden-browned sausage, herb-kissed tomatoes, and tender ditalini mingle in a velvety, Parmesan-laced broth. Inspired by nonna’s kitchen but streamlined for modern weeknights, it delivers deep, savory richness without hours of simmering. The cream isn’t heavy—it’s a silken veil that carries the nutty depth of aged cheese, while the tiny pasta tubes trap every drop of flavor. Ready in under 40 minutes, it’s the kind of meal that makes everyone linger at the table.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
It balances boldness (fennel-kissed sausage, garlic, herbs) with elegance (creamy, not cloying; cheesy, not chalky). The ditalini holds its shape beautifully—no mush—while soaking up the broth like edible sponges. Best of all? One pot, minimal cleanup, and leftovers that taste even better the next day.
Perfect for:
Cold-weather suppers, post-ski comfort, or any time you need a bowl that says “I’ve got you.”
