I don't know if easy even begins to describe how simple this is! I quartered the recipe since DBF was the only one eating (although I snagged a ladleful so that I could do a full review). The only thing I really measured was the broth, using 1 1/2 cups instead of the carton+can. I was initially a little leery of the gravy mix, but it definitely made the soup better! I used refrigerated diced potatoes with onions and Italian sausage since that is what I had on hand. I think my sausage could have been hotter (we like things really hot!) so next time I think I will use a spicier blend. All-in-all, a very easy pot of soup that hit the spot! Thanks angie_pangie! :-)

Hi, I'm a Wife and Mom of three girls ranging in age from 9 to 16. Two of my daughters have special needs, so life is never dull! We live in Michigan in a very rural area near the lake (lots of farmland and fishermen). My husband and I own a copywriting business and I am a food writer and blogger.
I have a degree in culinary arts and love to entertain and cook. I'm constantly creating and searching for new and improved recipes to try out on our friends or on my blog.
We spend a lot of time traveling and camping in the summer. Being self employed writers allows us to spend all sorts of time together and we really enjoy having the girls home all summer. We try to spend as much time as possible in the beautiful Michigan woods.
