I rely on this thick, chunky Sausage Potato Soup on busy weeknights when I'm too tired to spend a lot of time preparing dinner. The whole family enjoys the wonderful flavor of the smoked sausage. —Jennifer LeFevre, Hesston, Kansas

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound smoked kielbasa, diced
  • 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 cups frozen corn
  • 1-1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 celery rib, sliced
  • 1/4 cup sliced carrot
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1-1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, cook kielbasa over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes; drain and set aside. In the same pan, combine the potatoes, corn, broth, celery, carrot and seasonings. Bring to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Add the milk, cheese, parsley and sausage. Cook and stir over low heat until cheese is melted and soup is heated through, about 5 minutes.
