One of my favorite soups is sausage and potato soup but as a girl with stomach issues, I sometimes find the fattiness of sausage to be too much for my stomach to handle. I wanted to create a soup that tasted like it had sausage in it but would leave me with a happy tummy! This soup does just that – the key to recreating that classic sausage flavor is the fennel and paprika. I am a big lean ground turkey fan plus it is more budget friendly than ground beef but you can substitute with any lean ground meat of your choosing.
