Follow The Directions

01

Step

Place the sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender (6-8 minutes). Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Puree potatoes in a food processor or blender in batches until smooth. Return pureed potatoes to the large pot; set aside.

02

Step

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the onion in the hot oil until translucent (about 4 minutes). Add the sausage to the skillet and cook until completely browned, breaking the meat apart with the back of a wooden spoon as it cooks. Stir the garlic, mushrooms, and Italian seasoning into the sausage-and-onion mixture; continue cooking until the mushrooms are tender (another 4-5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper; transfer to the pot with the potatoes.

03

Step

Place the large pot over low heat. Pour the half-and-half over the mixture, stirring to mix. Allow the soup to slowly heat until hot and to your desired consistency. Garnish with Parmesan cheese to serve.

For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of half-and-half.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
Serve with crusty bread for dipping.

    I appreciate the vegetarian option in the comments. I will try it with cannellini beans next time.

    I didn't have any half-and-half so I used heavy cream. It was so rich and delicious!
