Cabbage, Potato and Sausage Soup

Potatoes and cabbage are simmered in an herbed broth just until tender to make this very easy and quick soup. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a simple weekend lunch. I love using sausage in my soups, because it adds a great deal of flavor with minimal effort. My whole family ate this soup very happily and my youngest even gave it two thumbs up.

Use a hot sausage or an Italian sausage, choose your favorite flavor, either one will be delicious. My preference is usually towards the hot or spicy sausage simply because my whole family likes it and a couple of my kids aren't big fans of Italian sausage.

1 lb hot sausage or Italian sausage
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion, diced to 1/2
4 cups potatoes, peeled and chopped bite-size, I used 2 huge russet potatoes
8 cups chicken stock or 8 cups water, plus 2 tablespoons chicken base
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 head of cabbage, thinly sliced into strips
2 teaspoons fresh thyme or 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Cook and crumble the sausage in a large pot, over medium high heat. Add the garlic and the onions and saute until softened and fragrant. Add the potatoes, chicken stock, salt and pepper and bring to a low boil for 10-15 minutes. When the potatoes are almost tender, add the cabbage and the thyme and stir to wilt the cabbage. Let it soften for a minute or two before serving. Enjoy!
