Smoked Sausage + Sweet Potato Soup

Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1-1/2 lbs nitrate-free smoked sausage sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion finely diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tsps smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 4 large sweet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 6 cups bone broth
  • 4 heaping cups roughly chopped baby spinach or kale
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, about 1/4 teaspoon each

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large dutch oven or stock pot over medium heat. Add sliced sausage and saute for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until nicely browned.
  • Stir in the onion, garlic, paprika, and chili powder. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add in your diced sweet potatoes, broth and bring to a boil. Once it starts bubbling, reduce heat and simmer, covered for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  • To make your soup a bit creamier, once it's done cooking, remove some of the sweet potatoes onto a plate. Using a fork mash, then return to the soup together with the spinach/kale. Stir well to combine and wilt the spinach.
  • Taste, then season with sea salt and pepper.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
