Well hey there everyone~~ Welcome back to Food with Benefits but actually not. Today's episode is part of a new cooking series called Nothing Fancy. In these episodes I'll be cooking up some of my favorite recipes and I'll walk you through every step of the way while also talking about some history behind the dish, it's meaning to me, and whatever else I talk about. 

Today's episode is on kielbasa soup. A recipe I learned from my mom which she learned from her Nana. So it's a recipe that's been in my family for generations, but that's not what I'm making! I'm making my own version of kielbasa soup that's inspired by hers. Don't worry, I'll make her nana's version too, but that'll be on Instagram if you wanna take a look. 

As you listen along, feel free to pause, rewind, or jump back to a later section if you need too.

Ingredients:

• 2 14oz. packs kielbasa sausage (sliced into half-moon shapes)
• 8 cups chicken stock
• 1 small white onion (diced)
• 4 stalks celery (sliced)
• 2 cups half-and-half
• 3 Yukon gold potatoes (.5"-.75" cubed)
