Note

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth if the soup has thickened too much.

For a vegetarian version, omit the sausage and chicken, and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Add extra beans or lentils for protein.

When blending hot soup, ensure the blender lid is secure and vented to prevent steam buildup. Blend in batches if necessary to avoid overflow.

Red potatoes hold their shape well but Yukon Golds can also be used for a slightly creamier texture. Ensure potatoes are fully cooked before blending for a smooth consistency.
