Notes: "This is a forgiving recipe. I chop my sausage into slices instead of browning it without the casing. Since I keep it on hand already cooked and frozen, this is much easier for me. Just brown it after chopping. Use whatever frozen vegetables you have on hand. If I don't have celery on hand, I will flavor with celery salt to make up for the flavor. Penne pasta works well in lieu of macaroni."
