Author's Notes

You can just use hot water if you don’t have chicken stock at home or if you want to keep it vegetarian. You can also use veggie stock for that matter as well. I like to add as much flavor as possible, wherever possible so I used chicken stock. Plus this recipe has ground sausage in it, so that vegetarian thing went out the window for me a long time ago.
