A hearty and delicious recipe for Italian Sausage and Ravioli Soup that you must try! Made with Italian sausage, fresh pasta, vegetables, and seasonings.
I love this hearty and flavorful Italian sausage and ravioli soup during the cold winter months. It’s the perfect bowl of comfort food. Nothing is better than a hot pot of soup and warm crusty bread on a cold winter day.
I originally got this amazing recipe from my mother-in-law, but it was prepared with tortellini pasta instead of ravioli. My friend, Elizabeth, in Ohio also brought this soup, using tortellini, to our recipe club for Italian night. It’s so delicious and I wanted to make sure and share it with all my foodie peeps.
I have made a few changes from the original recipe to make it my own and feel free to make substitutions to suit your taste buds. Using ravioli with a variety of complimentary fillings is a fun way to change it up. Enjoy!!

This looks similar to my cheese tortellini soup. I didn’t know Buitoni made whole wheat pasta. I make mine with turkey sausage and it tastes great. This is intriguing because of the spinach and some other different ingredients. I will have to try
