  4. Stir occasionally and add more liquid if needed.
  5. Add spinach and sausage (optional) and cook for another 15 minutes.
  6. A healthy squeeze of lemon juice really finishes the soup!
  7. Season to taste with freshly ground salt and pepper.

I am assuming that the no. of portions are wrong, because it starts with 6 cups of bouillon. If it is correct, how would you call a soupwith 9792 mg of sodium healthy?

i'd like to try this but the 3264 mg of sodium is a death sentence. Is there a way to lessen that?
