*If you are not dairy free - you can replace coconut milk with heavy cream

To Make the Soup Whole30 Compliant:

Many people have asked me how to make this soup Whole30 compliant and it's actually very easy! The first thing to note is that you need compliant Italian Sausage. I like to get mine from Pederson's Farms. You can get it online or I often find it at Sprouts!

The next thing to replace is the beans. Beans are not Whole30 compliant, but potatoes are! You can simply sub out the beans for two russet potatoes peeled & diced. They will cook while the soup is simmering.
