Yield: 6 servings
Quick and easy to prepare -- and very good, too.Ingredients:
1 pound sweet or hot Italian sausage, sliced1 large onion, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and sliced
6 potatoes, peeled and diced
1 cup sliced celery, including leaves
2 cans (16 ounces each) whole tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1-1/2 cups beef broth or stock (or 2 beef bouillon cubes dissolved in 1-1/3 cups water)
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper
juice of 1/2 lemon (optional)
salt to taste
If you prefer, you may also add additional ground beef or pork for a heartier texture. Cook the meat with the sausage if using.
Instructions:
In a large saucepan or nonreactive Dutch oven, brown the sausage over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until transparent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Remove the bay leaf before serving. Serve hot.Browse Similar Recipes

This is really good.
I added some Emeril seasoning to give some added zip. All in all a very good dish for weekend get togethers.
I used ground pork and a ground sausage mix, which my whole family enjoyed greatly, Will be made again this fall as the cooler season arrives.
This is delicious! Make extra and freeze some. Your family will be asking for more!
Added a couple garlic cloves; no lemon juice and a can of tomatoes with diced chilis. Have had three guests request the recipe. Use mild sausage and skip the chilis for company! Wonderfully simple to prepare and tastes even better if you make it ahead so flavors meld. YUM!
I varied this recipe as it’s close to another one I make called German Stew with boiled-down tomatoes, potato, hamburg or steak, then you can put in other vegetables which I do from time to time!
Excellent stew, easy to make, and very filling!
This is very easy and tasty, especially during our record cold spell down here in Florida.
