Paleo Sweet Potato Sausage Soup

Paleo Sweet Potato Sausage Soup is a tasty addition to a chilly fall or winter day. It’s quick to cook, it has just the right amount of spice to warm you up, and it’s garnished with bacon! This soup is perfect cold weather food or a delicious weeknight dinner. It’s loaded with nutritious ingredients and intense flavor made all in one pan.

Quick Tip: I crisp my bacon while the soup is cooking so it is still warm when serving.
