1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ⅓ pounds sausage links, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 medium carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
½ medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped

I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It was still delicious!

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the cayenne pepper. The soup was still delicious.
