Souper Sunday

Want to do a fun event with friends?  If so, then plan a "Souper Sunday" party!!!  Just ask your friends to bring their favorite soup to share or a favorite dessert.  It's that simple and a great way to have a fun get together for an afternoon or evening.


We attended Souper Sunday not too long ago and the soups were absolutely delicious.  We sampled Baked Potato Soup, Potato Soup, White Chicken Chili, Cajun 15 Bean Soup, 3 variations of Vegetable Soup, Italian Sausage Soup, Creamy Chicken N Veggie Soup and Clam Chowder.  Yep...it was a feast!!!  I made Neapolitan Cupcakes for the dessert table and they were yummy!!!!  Then top off your party with a game of East/West Hold Em!!! 


Dave shared his Italian Sausage Soup recipe with us and the next time we have a Souper Sunday I hope everyone will bring along copies of their recipes!!!!  It would be a great way to add to your soup recipe collection!!

1 pound ground Italian Sausage (hot or mild-your choice)

Salt and Pepper to taste

Put all ingredients in stockpot (except Spinach) and simmer for approximately 30 minutes or until zucchini is tender.
Remove from heat; add spinach; cover and let the heat of the soup cook the spinach.

Sounds like a fun get together. Having a little recipe book of the occasion would be a good remembrance.
