Sizzling Soup Series {Sweet Potato & Sausage Soup}

Welcome to week two of our  Sizzlin’ Soups: Six Weeks of Cozy Wholesome Soup Recipes! Get caught up on our previous two weeks! Week one was Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Chowder from Leigh Ann @ Intentional by Grace. Week two was Sausage and Kale Italian Zuppa from Rachel @ Day 2 Day Joys!

It is getting colder outside and therefore, warmer in my kitchen! Why? Because soup is slowly simmering away on my stove! Okay, it isn’t right this minute, but it will be as soon as I get the recipe for this week! (Don’t worry, I’ll get there)

A little about the series:

What’s in your stock pot? Do you need some inspiration? I hope you will find it here! These soups are beautiful and oh-so-tasty!

For the next 4 weeks, we will continue sharing with you our favorite cozy soups. Not to mention, each soup will use good, wholesome ingredients! At the end of the 6-week series, we will have a surprise for you. *hint: it’s FREE*

Now, without further ado: here is this weeks recipe – from me!

This soup has a sweet and savory balance: sweet potatoes, spinach, homemade broth and sausage combine to give you a nourishing meal that warms you from the inside out! And don’t forget the secret ingredient…nutmeg!

Sweet Potato & Sausage Soup

Ingredients:
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons salt
1 quart of chicken stock
3 large sweet potatoes (about 2 lbs), diced
1 sweet onion, diced
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
2 pounds natural sausage (italian or regular), lightly browned (Jimmy Dean 100% Natural is really affordable and so yummy! Use less salt if using this one. More if using regular italian)
10 oz frozen spinach, or about 3 cups baby spinach, washed

Method:
Combine nutmeg, salt and chicken stock and mix well. Place remaining ingredients, except for spinach, in crock pot (potatoes first so they are fully covered with liquid). Cover with stock mixture. Add additional water if necessary to make sure potatoes are covered. Cook on high for 30 minutes and low for 4 hours (or low for 5 hours if you are leaving and can’t change the temp!). Add spinach for last 30 minutes of cooking.
