This is a blog where I cook according to my mood. My style is for the "Florida Girl." You won't see too many stews, roasts, or soups, because it's HOT where we live! The majority of my recipes are health conscious...because I can't afford to pack on the pounds while living the beach life in sunny South Florida! All of these recipes are tried and true! Some are original, some are family recipes, and some are adapted.

Creamy Spicy Sausage and Roasted Red Bell Pepper Soup
I've made this three times, every time delicious, but I believe I've got it just the way I want it this time! As you may or may not know, I'm NOT good with measurements. I like to adjust to my liking, so bear with me. These are VERY close to accurate! Ha but no worries, you can always tweak it, too!
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 lb kielbasa sausage links (raw)
1/2 lb hot italian chicken sausage links (raw)
1 15 oz jar roasted red bell pepper slices, drained
4 cups beef stock
1/4 cup minced garlic
1 chopped onion
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
2 tsp cayenne pepper
4 large handfuls fresh spinach
8 oz cream cheese
METHOD:
Using a large dutch oven, drizzle some olive oil. Remove casings from sausage and brown in pot. Remove grease, and place sausage on a plate.
Add chopped onions and celery to pot and cook on low until tender. Add garlic and bell peppers and saute a few minutes on simmer, stirring constantly so not to burn the garlic.
Stir in the cream cheese until blended well.
Add beef broth and bring to a boil. Using an immersion blender, blend all until creamy and smooth. Add sausage to the pot.
Add in cayenne, maybe one teaspoon at a time until it reaches your level of spicy.
Before eating, add spinach and let it wilt. Stir in cream. ENJOY!
