Spicy Sausage & Spinach Soup

This 5 ingredient, one pot soup recipe is the most comforting soup for the cold winter days. This soup is inspired by a classic Italian wedding soup with my spin on it. It's a super easy and quick recipe to make in a pinch. It’s spicy and has a creamy consistency from cooking the rice right in the soup.
