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.

This base of this soup and its ingredients are great! Feels fresh and perfect for fall. After tasting, I think it needed a bit more seasoning and flavor to bring some life into it so we slightly modified. Would make again!

This is ABSOLUTELY delicious!!! The only alterations I made was adding 1tsp red pepper flakes, 1tsp applewood smoked salt and 1C baby rainbow carrots. The freshly chopped rosemary and ACV really shine through for an awesome broth. I will definitely make this again. 👍👍

Easy to make, and it has a nice earthy flavor. Great way to use up the remaining kale in the garden after the first snow!

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!

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

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
