Sausage Gnocchi Soup is a spicy and heartwarming soup. Each bite is met with a savory and flavorful broth with doughy nuggets of pasta.

Red pepper flakes and spicy Italian sausage really give this soup a kick. Feel free to omit if you like less spicy flavors. This soup is sure to warm you up either way!

Gnocchi is a potato pasta, making it so soft and delicious. Making gnocchi from scratch is quite the process, so I prefer to use premade gnocchi.
