"A very easy version of sausage soup. My husband loves this. We serve it with crusty bread (for dipping) and a tossed salad. It is an easy meal for the weeknights. I have varied the vegetables (by adding sauteed onions and mushrooms or using only frozen broccoli) and used steamed fresh veggies instead of the frozen."
