Saturdays are clean up day, and that includes the fridge. As we prepare to make room for Thanksgiving dinner (yes, we DO celebrate the holiday in our home in Switzerland), we clear out all contents and put them in soup. But, all of that cleaning can make a family mad hungry, so what better way to feed them than with a hearty Sausage and Wild Rice soup?<\/p>\n
This soup can be as thick or as thin as you choose. We prefer it a bit thick, and it packs so much flavor, thanks to the sausage. And, it’s relatively quick to make if you’re working with leftovers. We had both leftover rice and green peas from dinners earlier in the week, so we dropped them right into the pot. If you prefer a more vegetarian option, just swap out the stock for vegetable stock, and the sausage for smoked tofu, which tastes pretty awesome<\/p>\n
