easy chicken sausage potato soup

One of our very favorite things about fall is putting the barbecue away and busting out the pots to make warm soup. This is Arizona’s active time as the weather becomes cooler and we eat outside on the patio. This easy Chicken Sausage Potato Soup is great paired with fresh bread and cider or double it for a real crowd pleaser.

We added tortellini noodles to thicken it up and it is oh so good, definitely a hearty soup that keeps you full.

A home cooked meal instead of stale hospital food will help raise the spirits of someone you know who is currently undergoing constant chemotherapy sessions; we topped ours with a cute tag from J Goode Designs. Besides offering your company to listen and hold her hand, this is a small act of generosity that can really give a breast cancer fighter a morale boost. 🙂
