Pull up your boot straps kiddos, it’s finally fall in Southern California. I’ve stocked up on seasonal candles, crockpot recipes and baby pumpkins so even if Helen Keller came to visit, she’d know what time it was in our house. BOOM.
Tonight was perfect for a simple soup that is one of my favorites – inspired by Cooking Light – this one pot White Bean and Turkey Sausage Ragout with Tomatoes, Spinach and Zucchini can be whipped up in less than 30 minutes. As with all soups, it gets better with age – so you’ll be happy to know it feeds four with leftovers for lunch the next day.
