When I substituted turkey sausage for the pork sausage in my mother-in-law's recipe, we loved the result.

I made this for a Soup Swap that I hosted this past weekend. It was wonderful. I loved the flavors and it was so easy to make. It was my first time every making soup, and I will make this again. I used pork sausage, but I'm going to try the turkey sausage next. Very good easy soup.Diane Burdette, Brandywine, MD
