Comfort soup for sure. Instead of bratwurst you can use ham, sausage, or whatever you have a taste for. Or leave out the meat for a meatless pea soup.

  • Add a flavorful broth to your soup: You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth. You can also make your own broth by simmering bones and vegetables in water.
  • Season your soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a bit of acidity with lemon juice or vinegar.
  • Serve your soup with your favorite toppings: Some good options include bread, crackers, cheese, and sour cream.
