This is pretty good. Of six of us two loved it and the others didn't like or dislike it.

This was a very good recipe, and quite a nice change from a thick tomato-based sausage gumbo. I added some crushed red peppers and some chopped sweet chilies to spice it up a bit. I will definitely make this again.
