How to Make Creamy Cajun Potato Sausage Soup

Step 1: Brown the Sausage
In a large pot over medium heat, add oil.

Once hot, add sausage and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned.

Remove and set aside.

Step 2: Sauté the Veggies
In the same pot, add onion, celery, and bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5-8 minutes.

Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 3: Simmer the Soup Base
Add Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne, chicken broth, and potatoes to the pot.

Bring to a simmer and cook for 20–25 minutes, until potatoes are tender.

Step 4: Finish with Cream and Cheese
Return sausage to the pot. Stir in heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese.

Simmer for 5 more minutes until cheese is melted and soup is creamy.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Top with chopped parsley and serve warm.

What to Serve It With

Crusty bread or garlic toast

A simple green salad

Roasted green beans or broccoli

Variations / Substitutions

Swap sausage for ground turkey or chicken

Use sweet potatoes for a twist

Add a splash of hot sauce for more heat

Substitute cheddar with Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack

Storage & Leftovers

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days

Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave

Not freezer-friendly due to the dairy

FAQs

Can I make this soup vegetarian?
Yes! Omit the sausage and use veggie broth. Add beans or mushrooms for heartiness.

How do I make it less spicy?
Cut back or skip the cayenne and reduce Cajun seasoning.

Can I use a different type of potato?
Yukon Gold or red potatoes also work well.

What if I don’t have heavy cream?
Use half-and-half or whole milk, though the soup will be slightly less rich.

Does this soup thicken as it sits?
Yes, the starch from the potatoes makes it thicker over time.

Final Thoughts

This Cajun potato sausage soup is everything you want in a bowl—warm, spicy, cheesy, and incredibly comforting.

It’s perfect for cozy weeknights or impressing guests with bold Southern flavor.
