I've been making my Spicy Sausage Soup for quite a few years. It's always a hit! If you don't like spicy, you could substitute sweet italian sausage for the spicy italian sausage and also leave out the red pepper. I often make this with the spicy sausage, but leave out the pepper anyway. My kids don't like it too spicy.
