Steps:
- Take the sausage meat out of the casings and crumble it into a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain a bit of the fat, leaving some in for flavor. I prep as I go along, so I chop the onion and get the other ingredients started as the sausage cooks.
- Add the onion, celery, and garlic to the pot. Continue cooking it for another 5 minutes. Meanwhile, chop any remaining ingredients.
- Add in the chicken broth, water, carrots, potatoes, red pepper, and corn. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
- Season with salt & pepper as needed.

CHEESY VEGETABLE SOUP
My husband's a grain farmer who is definitely a "meat and potatoes" man. He likes soup on a chilly day, though. Served with warm bread, this makes for a quick but hearty noontime meal. Along with our children, 10 and 5, we live 5 miles from town. I wouldn't trade country life for a million bucks!
