1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Cook Italian sausage and red pepper flakes in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until crumbly, browned, and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
3 Cook bacon in the same Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes.
4 Drain, leaving a few tablespoons of drippings with the bacon in the bottom of the Dutch oven. Stir in onions and garlic; cook until onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
5 Stir in chicken broth and bring to a boil over high heat.
6 Add potatoes and simmer until fork tender, about 20 minutes.
7 Reduce heat to medium; stir in cream, cooked sausage, and spinach.
8 Cook and stir until spinach has wilted and sausage is warmed through; serve.
