I subscribe to a meal plan service called CookSmarts. The gist is:

chop your fennel, onion, bell pepper (I used orange), garlic, sweet potatoes and your sausage and throw it all minus the sweet potatoes in the pot to soften a bit; when soft, sprinkle some flour over it and stir to get rid of dry spots, stir in broth slowly so no lumps; put in sweet potatoes and some thyme and cook it until the potatoes are soft; take it off the heat and add the apple cider vinegar, a little dab will do, heave cream, optional can of white beans, and season to taste 🎉
