🍴What to Serve with Vegetable Beef and Sausage Soup
My family likes to eat southern cheddar jalapeno cornbread with soup. Of course, you could always make a loaf of homemade bread, make a batch of quick hush puppies with jalapenos, or pull out some saltine crackers. Let’s not forget about a good ole grilled cheese sandwich. Perfect every time!

It must smell like Christmas when you cook this! Although I’m not a huge fam of meats, sometimes I do indulge, and this soup sounds like a good idea:)
This sounds like the perfect way to spend a bitterly cold winter day. Love it!
What a great cold weather soup! Frozen veggies are great in soup and to keep on hand in order to not have to hit the grocery store in snowy weather!
This looks so yummy and would make some great comfort food. Thanks for sharing.
It is great comfort food and is perfect for a winter night.
There is something about the winter months that SCREAM soup and stew to me. It’s such a nice comfort food that helps us to stay warm and cozy despite the cool temperatures outside. While I don’t eat beef or pork, my husband enjoys it – so I try to make some options for him that include meat once in a while. With how easy this recipe is, I could easily make this while making myself a veggie soup at the same time!
