INGREDIENTS

• 1 tbs oil
• 1 diced onion
• 250gm pkt zucchini spaghetti (we call them zoodles)

METHOD

Heat the oil on medium heat in a large pot, add onion and cook until soft. Add the pork sausage mince by squeezing out of the skins. Break up sausages with a spoon as they cook.

Add the garlic & herbs, stir through. Now add the tomatoes and stock and bring to a simmer.

Add the carrot and sweet potato and cook for 5 minutes.

Now add the soup pasta and stir occasionally while it is cooking.

In the last minute of cooking, add the spinach and zucchini spaghetti. Do not overcook the zoodles!

Optional: To serve, top with parmesan cheese.

Tip#1– If the soup becomes too thick add some more liquid stock.
Tip#2 – Make this a creamy soup by adding ½ cup of cream with the spinach and zoodles.
