Instructions

1. In a soup pot, brown sausage over medium-high heat. Once it is about half browned and has begun giving up some of its juices, add the celery and onion to the pot and cook with the sausage as it finishes browning.
2. Once sausage is brown, stir in garlic until just fragrant, about 30 seconds.
3. Add Rotel, seasonings, and chicken broth, and bring to a simmer.
4. Lower heat and simmer ten minutes.
5. In the last few minutes of the simmer, sprinkle  glucomannan powder over the heavy cream while whisking vigorously. Once it is all incorporated, pour the heavy cream mixture into the pot and mix well.
6. Continue simmering until the soup is warmed through and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes more.
7. Add cheese to the pot to melt and cook until as thick as desired.
8. Serve hot.
