I differentiated my version of the soup from the original by using two different kinds of meat and tossing in some more veggies. You’ll find all of that below! What things would you add to the recipe to make it your own? The video below will show you how its made.
The sweet mini peppers that I added to this dish give it a really nice balance to the heat those hot sausage give off! After all was said and done, everyone left the kitchen with smiles on their faces and fully bellies. And that’s how it’s done – at least until I mess up another experiment and when I do, you’ll see that too! Check out the finished, plated soup below.
