my mom is German, learned this from her. delicious and nutritious!

This recipe has been passed down from my Grandma to my pops and then to me. But they never wrote it down, you basically learned to make this dish by watching them cook. Things, such as sausage, crushed red pepper, may be added, but this is a great dish as is.Finally, it is neither soup, nor stew. It is pretty much in between. The spices are an estimate, add to suit your own tastes. #mycookbookEnjoy!
