The other night I made Paula Deen's Italian Sausage Soup and it was so delicious!!

1 1oz package sweet Italian sausage, casing removed

1 yellow onion, chopped

1 cup minced celery

1 cup minced carrots

3 cans beef broth

2 cans diced tomatoes

1 can red kidney beans

1 can light red

1 can northern beans

2 cups ditalini pasta

1 t salt

1 t pepper

Brown sausage, onion, celery and carrots over low heat until sausage is browned and crumbles. Drain well. Stir in broth, tomatoes and beans. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Add pasta, simmer for 8-10. Add salt and pepper. Serve.

I used more veggies and left them more bite sized and more pasta than called for. Everyone loved it and last night asked for "left overs".

Today we have Austin over to play. We had errands to run so I alternated a fun one, with one that I needed to do. Library, Kohls, Pet store (like going to the zoo but free and close), Hobby Lobby, Chick fil-a to play. It went well :)
