Polish Sausage (Kielbasa) Soup
You can use from 1-3 pounds of sausage depending on your tastes. I love dipping buttered rye bread in the soup - must be my Polish genes.

My family is Polish also and this soup caught my eye immediately. Made exactly as written and enjoyed every bite! I used Eckrich smoked sausage, a bag of cole slaw mix so I didnt have to shred cabbage, matchstick sliced carrots and yukon gold potatoes. Couldnt find any fresh dill at the grocery store so I omitted it but would have been a nice topping. Definitely had the rye bread (no caraway seeds though) and butter ready to dip in my soup. A new favorite to add to my soup recipes! Made and reviewed for the Alphabet tag game.Reply
