  1. Cook sausage in a large soup pot over medium-high heat until browned, drain the fat.

  3. Stir in the chicken broth, bell pepper, celery and sweet potatoes, increase the heat and bring to a boil.
  4. Once it's boiling, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are soft.

Notes

The thing I love about soup is that it's so forgiving. Add in what you like, take out what you don't, mix it up to fit your family's tastes. Omit the potatoes if you'd like to make this more low-carb. You could also add avocado or hot sauce to give it a slight change.
