Step 1

Add andouille sausage and onions to a stockpot on the stove over medium-high heat until the sausage chunks have browned a bit and the onions are soft and fragrant. Add the garlic; cook and stir one more minute.

Step 2

Add chicken broth, vegetable recipe mix, beans, turnip greens, hot sauce and black pepper and stir together.

Step 3

Bring mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let simmer, covered for an hour to allow flavors to develop and mingle. Add cooked ditalini in the last 15 minutes or so.
