I have 1/2 lb. of cooked Italian sausage (links) I'd like to use up. I was
thinking a tomato soup with perhaps some rice added. I'd cut the sausage
into chunks; it's mild sausage but has a nice fennel taste. Here's what I
have on hand (aside from the sausage):

3 cans stewed tomatoes
3 cans tomato sauce
various herbs/spices - oregano, basil, marjoram
cooked rice (in the freezer)
onion powder (sorry no real onion)
garlic

Would you use the tomato sauce or the stewed tomatoes or a combination
thereof? And in what quantities for say, 4 bowls of soup? Sorry, I have no
stock or broth but I have a little beef soup base in the fridge. No celery,
either, dammit. Oh, but I do have frozen spinach. Water, of course, I
have. Your thoughts? Or should I ditch the idea completely?
