Sausage Soup

Ingredients:

6 potatoes, cubed

1 onion, chopped

4 stalks celery, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

½ stick margarine

3 cups water

1 can of whole Kernel Corn

1 pound Hillshire Farm sausage, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces

Salt to taste                                                                                    

Ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

Slice sausage and cook in a skillet until brown (this will remove some of the grease from the sausage). Drain sausage onto paper towels. In a large pot over medium heat, combine, onion and celery, with the margarine and sauté until vegetables are soft. Add the sausage and then pour in water.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.  Add potatoes and cook until tender, approximately 25 minutes. Add a can of corn and continue to simmer until heated thoroughly and slightly thickened. Season with pepper. Serve hot.

I usually serve with green onions and cornbread.

Yields 6 servings.
