Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. medium or spicy Italian sausage cooked and diced
  • 3 tbsp. butter
  • 1/2 white onion diced
  • 2 carrots peeled and diced
  • 2 celery sticks diced
  • 2 garlic cloves diced
  • 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 4 c. chicken broth
  • 1 c. filtered water
  • 1 tbsp. Italian seasoning
  • 1 lb. Russet Potatoes peeled and diced into small bite sized pieces
  • 1 c. whole milk
  • 1 c. old cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Start by frying the sausages. They can be fried in a pan for 12-15 minutes over medium-high heat, or in the air fryer at 350℉/180℃ for 15 minutes. Cut into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
  • In a deep skillet, melt the butter then add the onion, carrots, and celery. Coat well with the butter and fry on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, then add the diced garlic cloves and continue to fry for another minute.
  • Add the all-purpose flour to the vegetables and stir in well. Fry for about 2 minutes, until the flour cannot be seen anymore. Slowly add the chicken broth to the skillet, making sure to scrape the bottom of the skillet as you add to unstick any vegetables. Add the filtered water, Italian seasoning, and milk. Bring the soup to a boil.
  • Once the soup is boiling, reduce to a simmer and add the diced potatoes. Simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork. Add the cooked sausage and the cheese and let the cheese fully melt.
  • When the cheese has melted remove from the stove, let cool, and enjoy.
