This was just okay - I would not make again.

This was very good.......I was afraid two tabelspoons of sage would be too much though, and I preferred that the smokiness of the sausage come through, so I only added about on half teaspoon of each spice. The results were great! We served it by putting mashed potatoes in soup bowls and putting the soup over the top. Yum!
