My husband and I first tasted this soup in a restaurant and loved it. I’m diabetic, so I came up with this healthier—but just as tasty—version! Serve it with crusty rolls and a green salad for a hearty meal. —KayLyn VanderVeen, Grand Rapids, Michigan

I made this recently with all the rain we've been having and it was delicious. Perfect for a cool, rainy day. It was easy to prepare and my husband and I loved it. I will be preparing this soup again. I highly recommend this recipe as a Volunteer Field Editor for Taste of Home.

I love this!!! I used hamburg instead of turkey sausage. Very filling when served with cheese bread.

This was in the first issue of Cooking for 2 that I received and I made it the day the magazine arrived using pork sausage because that's what I had on hand and sweet red peppers because I don't like cooked green pepper. I made another batch two days later. I have served it to family and friends with rave reviews and it continues to be a favorite.

This soup is delicious!! I used ground beef instead. Try it if you like stuffed green cabbage rolls.
