Vegan-izing this classic Tuscan soup is surprisingly easy (and tasty) thanks to PC Plant-Based Sweet Italian Sausages and PC Plant-Based Beefless Broth. When trimming Swiss chard, you want to remove the thick, tough stems (slice up the thinner stems along with the leaves). Toss the thick stems in the freezer for the next time you make stock, or add them to hot vinegar and sugar for quick pickles.

How to make

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp (30 mL)

    olive oil, divided

  • 1 pkg (400 g)

    PC® Plant-Based Sweet Italian Sausages (4 sausages)

  • 1

    small onion, finely chopped

  • 1

    carrot, thinly sliced

  • 1

    stalk celery, thinly sliced

  • 2

    cloves garlic, minced

  • 1

    small bunch Swiss chard, thick stems removed and leaves thinly sliced (about 8 cups/2 L)

  • 1 pkg (1 L)

    PC® Plant-Based Beefless Broth

  • 1 can (540 mL)

    white kidney beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL)

    black pepper

  • 2 tbsp (30 mL)

    fresh parsley, finely chopped

How to make

  • Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil in large saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook sausages, turning frequently, until browned and cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Let cool slightly. Cut into ½-inch (1 cm) thick rounds. Set aside.

  • Step 2

    While sausages are cooling, heat remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil in same saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, carrot, and celery, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  • Step 3

    Add Swiss chard; cook, stirring occasionally, just until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Stir in beans, pepper, and sausages. Cook 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in parsley.
