Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil to a soup pot or Dutch oven. Take the sausage meat out of the casings and crumble it into the pot. Cook it, over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sausages start to brown/crisp up (about 8-10 minutes).
  2. Spoon out the excess fat, leaving about 1-2 tablespoons in there.
  3. Stir in the onions, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 5 minutes or so.
  4. Stir in the garlic and let it cook for about 30 seconds, then add the broth, water, and potatoes.
  5. Increase the heat to high. Bring the soup to a boil, then cover the pot with the lid slightly open and reduce the heat so it's simmering. Cook for 20 minutes or until the potatoes and veggies are tender.
  6. Season with salt & pepper as needed.

Notes

  • Served 4-6 depending on how much people eat (and if you serve something like bread with it). 
  • Anything around a pound of sausages will work. Here in Canada Johnsonville brats come in 500g packages, so I will typically just use the whole pack.
  • I love to season this soup with Tony's seasoning or seasoning salt vs. regular salt & pepper.
