This creamy sausage potato soup is a comforting one-pot meal packed with Italian sausage, veggies, herbs, cheddar, and potatoes. Quick to make with comforting flavors, it's perfect for chilly nights.
Brown Italian sausage in pressure cooker on medium heat. Scoop out and set aside.
Add butter, then onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until soft.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Sprinkle in flour and stir to coat. Cook 2 minutes to remove raw flour taste.
Slowly whisk in chicken broth to smooth, then return sausage to the pot.
Add potatoes, seasonings (basil, parsley, oregano, mustard powder, pepper), soy sauce, and hot sauce. Stir well.
Lock lid and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Let natural release for 10 more minutes.
Open lid, stir in heavy cream and cheese (if using). Heat on low until melted. Taste and serve hot.
Notes
This hearty soup is freezer-friendly. Cool completely before freezing and reheat slowly for best texture. Cheese should be added fresh after reheating if frozen.
