Spicy Sausage Vegetable Soup

This recipe has been a mainstay of my sustenance for over thirty years and all of the credit for it goes to my lovely Grandmother who, in turn, passed it on to Mom and then to me. It is one of the first creations I ever attempted and still remains an integral part of my cooking repertoire, especially during the Fall and Winter months.
