Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Italian Sausage sliced
  • 1 Medium Onion chopped
  • 4 cups Potatoes peeled and diced
  • 4 cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream or Half and Half
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Thyme or Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil if sautéing
  • 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese shredded

Method
 

  1. Add the onion, diced potatoes, chicken broth, and seasonings to your crockpot. Stir to combine.
  2. Add the sliced sausage. Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
  3. Once the potatoes are tender, stir in the heavy cream and cheese. Cover and let cook for another 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and everything is warmed through. For a thicker, creamier texture, gently mash some of the potatoes with a potato masher. Serve and enjoy!
