Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Sauté the vegetables: Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add a splash of olive oil and toss in diced onions, chopped carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5–7 minutes until softened.
  2. Cook the sausage and garlic: Add minced garlic and crumble in the turkey Italian sausage. Increase heat to medium-high and cook for 8–10 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  3. Add the broth: Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil. Stir well and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Incorporate the gnocchi: Stir in the potato gnocchi and cook for 3–5 minutes until they float to the surface and become tender.
  5. Stir in the cream and seasonings: Lower the heat to medium-low and gradually add 1 cup of heavy cream. Stir to combine and season with Italian herbs, salt, and pepper to taste.
  6. Gentle heat finish: Heat the soup for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, avoiding a boil.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Remove from heat and ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh herbs or cheese if desired.
