Recipe by Chef Sarita in Aust

It was Sunday and I had not gone to the store. Both my pantry and fridge were bare and the weather was rainy and cold. I was really in the mood for some of Olive Garden's Tuscana Soup so I used what I had available and using a little creativity I created a nice soup for a cold rainy day that was not like the Tuscana soup but it satisfied my craving for something similar to it.

cup white onion, chopped
¹⁄₄

cup bell pepper, chopped
1

lb pork sausage, already seasoned (breakfast sausage ok)

1

table spoon chicken bouillon

DIRECTIONS

In a large pot on medium high, cook sausage, onion and bell pepper together. Once the sausage is cooked thru and crumbled, add the 1 1/2 cup chicken broth.
In a glass measuring cup, add the reserved 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup sour cream. With a wisk, mix thoroughly until the sour cream is incorperated and there are no lumps. Add this mixture to the pot and give it a stir.
Add chicken bullion to pot. Add the garlic salt and pepper to taste. DO NOT over do it with garlic salt as the chicken bullion already has salt in it.
Add the cabbage to the the pot and about 1 cup of water (or atleast enough to barely cover the top of the cabbage).
Bring to a simmer and taste to check if more salt is needed.
Cook covered on medium for about 20-25 minutes or until both cabbage and potatoes are tender. Add the cilantro at the end of cooking.
