Sounds good, Scotkat.

I often make a Brussel Soup in Germany. I leave the onion and potatoes out most of the time, but always add carrot (about 1/3rd carrot to 2/3rd sprouts). Salt and pepper to taste and thyme, yes, thyme! Sounds weird but it gives the soups that special tang.

The recipe I use calls for a smoked sausage, too, but since you use stock, you can leave it out.
