Use turkey or chicken sausage with no pork casings or fillers. Check ingredient labels carefully.
Avoid Cross-Contamination:
Ensure your kitchen tools and slow cooker are thoroughly cleaned to avoid any contact with mammalian products.
Add Safe Garnishes:
Skip sour cream and top the soup with chopped fresh parsley or a splash of lemon juice for added brightness.
