Preparation
  1. In a large pot, sauté diced andouille sausage until it’s nicely browned.
  2. Add the chopped potatoes and mixed vegetables, stirring to combine.
  3. Sprinkle your Cajun spices over everything, then pour in enough water or broth to cover those ingredients.
  4. Bring it all to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese, mixing until the cheese melts and creates a creamy texture.
  6. Serve hot, adorned with a sprinkle of extra cheese or sliced green onions, if desired.

Notes

This soup lasts about 3-4 days in the fridge and can be frozen for up to a month. For best results, cool before transferring to an airtight container. Reheat until piping hot before serving. Add heavy cream towards the end for a richer flavor.
