Substitute Andouille sausage to add some great flavor and some heat too!

It's delicious, but even better.., to add a little Louisiana "Zing" to it, add 1 or 2 tsp (to taste) of Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning. It's a taste delight.

based on quantities of the ingredients, sound like 4 good serbvings.. i'd add a little "heat" to it though, depending on ohow spicey the turkey sausage is.
