Crock Pot Spicy Cowboy Sausage Soup

This Crock Pot Spicy Cowboy Sausage Soup is spicy and delicious. Don’t like spicy? Switch up the hot Italian sausage for mild Italian sausage. It will still be delicious just not as spicy.

Dear readers I am in a frenzy trying to write this crock pot recipe for you. It is going to be short and sweet as I am in the middle of getting ready to evacuate because of Hurricane Irma.

I am really ticked off at this hurricane. Not only has it turned the state of Florida upside down as we rush to prepare our homes or evacuate to keep our families safe. But today is my birthday!! : ( : (

And I was planning a big Pinterest celebration as I reached my 100,000 Pinterest follower which probably will have happened as I am on the road heading out of S.W Florida.

Here is the Crock Pot Spicy Cowboy Sausage recipe. Not my best photos but what can I say? I took them yesterday in between packing my precious belongings up for the trip.
