Fabulously delicious is the only way to describe this total comfort food!! I used leftover chicken, smoked turkey, and polish sausage. I left out the carrots and the celery, but we did not miss them!!! The broth had just the right cajun "kick" to it. I did add an 8oz. can of tomato sauce and a can of spicy chili beans for additional flavor and texture. Thank you Tornado Ali, for sharing a great recipe!!
