Alpine Potato Soup

I have the worst head cold right now... so despite the fact that the weather has been gorgeous, I have been craving a nice, hot soup. This one is delicious! It is a slight variation of one Erin introduced me to - I love it!

  8. I love using Polish sausage in soup, especially with cabbage. I am not sure why, but Polish cuisine is so overlooked.
