ITALIAN TURKEY SAUSAGE AND ARTICHOKE SOUP

Simple, good, and healthy -- there's no better description for this soup. Take a pot to a new neighbor or a sick friend.

* 3 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 pound mild Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
* 4 cups unsalted chicken stock
* 1 (14.5-ounce) can organic no-salt-added fire-roasted diced tomatoes
* 1 (9-ounce) bag frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and halved
* 2 cups water
* 4 cups coarsely torn baby spinach
* 3/4 cup freshly shaved Parmesan cheese

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high. Cook sausage, stirring to crumble, until browned, 10 minutes. Add stock, tomatoes, artichokes, and water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer.

2. Add spinach, and cook just until wilted, about 3 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls; top evenly with cheese.
