Notes

For extra flavor, try using different types of sausage, like spicy or smoked. If you want a thicker soup, mash some of the potatoes after they are cooked. Add in additional vegetables, like carrots or spinach, for more variety. To store, let soup cool to room temperature, transfer into an airtight container and refrigerate for 3-4 days. It can also be frozen for longer storage.
