A splash of vinegar is a long-standing chef's trick for soups. Added just before you serve the soup, vinegar brightens the taste considerably. Use your favorite style of chicken sausage to add variety to this dish.

Delicious I made this recipe last night for my roommate and I. There was enough for dinner and lunch. We were both tempted to eat our lunch portions as soon as dinner was done! This is a fantastic easy to make dinner. I added a teaspoon of red pepper flakes with the broth for a little kick. I will be making this stew again and again. Pros: Quick Easy Tasty Healthy Read More

Good work. Very easy to adjust. You can omit one of the vegetables or the meat or add leftover vegetables. You can add spices and salt for more flavor. I didn't taste much of the chicken sausage in the soup so might use a pork sausage or polish sausage. Halving the recipe still makes enough for four people. I found this to be a colorful way to eat my vegetables definitely a change from salads. It's easy to prepare and quick too. Thanks again EW! Read More

Home run Made this for the first time in early September. Air just starting to get that hint of fall. This was awesome! Really hit the spot. Has layers of subtle flavors that come shining through and is hearty enough for dinner especially with some crusty bread. I usually spice up my dishes a bit but after tasting this I decided it was perfect as is. I had all of the ingredients on hand and it took about a half hour. Pros: Quick and delicious Read More
