What follows is my version of which my husband ate 3 helpings.
Sausage, Vegetable, and Pasta Stew
Ingredients
1 quart jar of tomatoes pureed with dried kale
about 2 cups of potato, cubed
2 ribs of bok choy, chopped
1 dozen mushrooms, sliced not too thinly
6 cups of chicken stock
2 to 3 chopped carrots
1 chopped yellow pepper
1 lb. of loose sausage
2 cups of pasta
oregano
basil
salt
pepper
olive oil
Method
Break the loose sausage into chunks if needed, and saute it in a heavy-bottomed pot. Remove from the pot.
Saute the carrot, bok choy, mushroom, and yellow pepper with olive oil.
Add 6 cups of chicken stock, and stir to remove the sausage bits from the bottom of the pot. Then add the potatoes, seasonings, sausage, and pureed tomato. Cook until the potatoes are almost done, and add the pasta. Check the seasonings, and cook until the pasta is done.
Note
I went with the veggie in the pantry and fridge that needed to be used up. No one actually noticed the bok choy. The dried kale was an attempt to get some green stuff into my stew without it being noticeable. If you don’t have dried kale, then fresh kale or spinach would work just as well.

This looks delicious. We have cut way back on meat but we still like sausage. I use turkey sausage. This is a recipe to make.
Your stew looks so good. I wish I had a bowl right now.
Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Fantastic! I love all of the flavors you've included in here — I'm learning all about kale from people's posts this week!
This looks delicious, Barb! I’ve pinned it to my Pasta board on Pinterest. I pinned the other posts you shared with us at Hearth and Soul as well. Thank you so much for your support of the hop!
