Warm up with this hearty sausage and vegetable soup. Made with beef sausage, fresh vegetables, and savory broth, it’s perfect for any season.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces of crumbled beef sausage
  • ½ medium onion, chopped
  • 3 sticks of celery, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced thinly or chopped
  • 2 large Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup of corn (frozen used here)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Brown the sausage
    Start by adding your crumbled beef sausage to a large pot over medium-high heat. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon as you go. You want it to start browning nicely, which will give it a lot of flavor. If you find there’s too much fat in the pot, just spoon some of it out—leaving a little bit behind will help flavor the vegetables in the next step.
  2. Add the aromatics
    Now, toss in the chopped onion, celery, and minced garlic. Cook everything together for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The vegetables should soften and become fragrant, creating a delicious base for the soup.
  3. Add the broth, water, and vegetables
    Pour in the chicken broth and water, then add the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, chopped bell pepper, and corn. Give everything a good stir and increase the heat to high to bring the soup to a boil.
  4. Simmer and season
    Once the soup reaches a boil, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender. Test a piece of carrot or potato with a fork to make sure they’re done. At this stage, taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed. Remember, the sausage will add some saltiness, so you may not need much.
  5. Serve and enjoy
    Ladle the soup into bowls and serve it hot. This soup is fantastic on its own, but you can add a sprinkle of fresh herbs, like parsley or chives, for a pop of color and freshness.

Notes

Got leftovers? Lucky you! This sausage and vegetable soup stores well in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. When you’re ready to reheat, simply warm it up on the stove over medium heat until hot, stirring occasionally. If you notice that the soup has thickened a bit (potatoes tend to do that), just add a splash of water or broth to loosen it up. This soup also freezes well; just store it in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw in the fridge overnight and then warm on the stovetop.
