Directions
In a Dutch oven over medium high heat, brown sausage links. Drain off fat. Add potatoes, oregano, basil, parsley, and garlic. Toss to coat. Add chicken broth, tomatoes and enough water to cover all ingredients in the pot. Bring to a boil; then reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.
Add corn and milk and continue cooking, over medium heat, for 15 minutes. Add apples and cook for 5-10 minutes more, until apples are tender, but not mushy. Top with croutons and serve with warm bread.
