This is seriously my favorite soup. I use turkey sausage and bacon bits to cut the fat grams. The orig. recipe calls for reg. bacon, and also some garlic. So..very, very good! And guests love it! Oh and the orig. recipe uses crumbled italian sausage, so I just squeeze the turkey sausage out of the casing and brown it. Then I add the garlic, then the low fat REAL bacon bits. Then I add the liquid (I use water and bouillon and monitor my salt content otherwise).
