Sauerkraut Soup.....

Sauerkraut soup
1 pound polish sausage, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
5 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 medium onions, chopped
3 carrots, cut into 1/4 inch slices
3 cans (14.5 ounces each) chicken broth
1 can (32 oz) sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine sausage, potatoes, onions, carrots and chicken broth, bring to a boil.
Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add sauerkraut and tomato paste; mix well. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 30 minutes longer.
If a thinner soup is desired, add additional water or chicken broth.
Makes 8 - 10 servings     Given to me by a friend, such a good recipe!  Will warm your bones on a cold day/night.   I was hesitant on adding the sauerkraut as we don't eat a lot of it,  totally makes the soup, just be sure to rinse it 3 or 4 times before adding.  Enjoy!
