For a vegetarian version, substitute the elk sausage with plant-based sausage or omit it altogether. Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce according to your spice preference. A dash of smoked paprika can also add a delightful depth of flavor. Feel free to add other vegetables, such as parsnips or turnips, to customize the soup to your liking. A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt adds a creamy, tangy finish just before serving.
