In a large pot or Dutch oven brown the Italian sausage and onion together. Drain off any excess fat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Add spaghetti sauce, 6 cups of the chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, seasonings, balsamic vinegar, sugar, bay leaf, and noodles. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cook until noodles are done, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Discard bay leaf. Stir in heavy cream and 2-4 more cups of broth to desired consistency. Heat through.
To serve: Top with cheeses of choice and serve with garlic bread OR turn on oven to low broil. Ladle soup into oven safe bowls and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Top with a slice of toasted garlic bread and lay a slice of provolone cheese on top of the bread. Place bowls on baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, watch closely. When cheese is toasted remove from the oven and top with a dollop of ricotta cheese. Enjoy!
