- 4 cups chicken broth
- 4 large Russet potatoes peeled and diced
- 1 ring Andouille sausage
- 3 ribs celery diced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic

Instructions
- Prep the sausage: Slice the sausage into ¼-inch rounds.
- Load the crockpot: Add everything to the slow cooker except the heavy cream and cheese. Give it a good stir to combine.
- Cook: Cover and cook on high for about 3 ½ hours or on low for 5 ½ hours, until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have blended.
- Make it creamy: Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheese, then let it cook for another 30 minutes on low so it all melts together.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and dig in. A sprinkle of extra cheese or green onions on top never hurts.
