Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons bacon drippings
1 onion, diced
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 teaspoon dried sage
½ teaspoon paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 cups finely chopped broccoli florets
4 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
4 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chilies
2 cups sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat bacon drippings in a large, deep saucepan or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery; saute until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sausage, sage, paprika, salt, and pepper; continue to saute, mashing up the sausage into small pieces until browned and no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • While sausage is cooking, poke several holes in a zip-top bag and add broccoli (this allows steam to escape). Microwave for 3 minutes.
  • Pour broth into sausage mixture, then add mashed potatoes. Mix well, then add the broccoli, corn, and green chilies. Stir to combine all well and then add the sour cream. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed. Let simmer for about 10 more minutes for flavors to meld.

POTATO, BROCCOLI, AND CHEDDAR SOUP



Potato, Broccoli, and Cheddar Soup image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 large shallots, halved and thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
3 large cloves garlic, minced (2 tablespoons)
2 pounds broccoli, stems peeled and chopped, florets cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 cups florets)
3 small Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and chopped (1 1/2 cups) Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 packed cups grated white cheddar (from an 8-ounce block)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus grated zest for serving
4 slices (each 1/2 inch thick) rustic Italian bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high. Add shallots, half of garlic, broccoli stems, potatoes, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 5 cups water; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add 3 cups broccoli florets; cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender with 1 cup cheese; puree until smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
