I've mentioned before how James and I enjoy dining on soup during the winter. Here are a trio of soups that are perfect on a cold winter night!

4 beef bouillon cube
4 teaspoons molasses
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

In a large pot, cook sausage, beef and onion until meat is no longer pink. Drain. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
