Liesl Maggiore: Even in Southern California, this time of year is definitely still soup weather! My Colorado mom is queen of winter soups and I guess her love of making and eating them rubbed off on me. There is nothing more satisfying than the smells and warmth that come from homemade soup. And the best part is, so many are super easy to make and quite healthy - like this one! This recipe is packed with veggies and protein and my whole family loves it. I like to use a sausage that has a little smokiness to it for added depth of flavor.
