We have an abundance of smoke sausage. Walmart carries a brand of smoke sausage for 99 cents. Compared to others ($3.00 or more a package) we stock up on it once a month. Right now, we have 30 packages in our deep freeze. One way we use it in a meal is making a tomato based soup.

Smoke Sausage & Radiatore Soup
2 pkgs. smoke sausage
2 T. dehydrated onion
2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
½ tsp. basil
1 tsp. pepper
14 oz. dried tomatoes
28 oz. tomato sauce
32 oz. beef broth
1 c. carrots
16 oz. box Radiatore pasta
Following the pasta directions, prepare the radiatore. As it cooks, cut up the smoke sausage into slices. In a large soup pot, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Once it boils, turn it to simmer and stir in the prepared pasta. Let it simmer for 15 minutes.
Put into bowls and sprinkle with some Parmesan cheese. Enjoy with a loaf of fresh made bread.
