Spicy Sausage Cheese Soup

It's been a while since I've posted a recipe on here.  It's not because I haven't been cooking, I have.  I've just been really bad about writing down my recipes and taking pictures of the finished product.  Here is a recipe (sans photo) that I really liked.  Hubster even gave it an A+!

What You'll Need:

• 1 pound pork sausage
• 1 whole large onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 whole medium jalapeno, diced
• 2 small chipotle peppers, packed in adobo (rince the sauce off if you want to cut down on the heat!)
• 1 can of beer
• 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 1 can cheese soup
• 1 cup corn
• 1 cup peas
• 2 potatoes, diced
• salt and pepper to taste

What You Do:

Heat a large pot and add sausage. Cook until brown, remove and reserve the grease.

Add onions, garlic, jalapeno and chipotles to pot and cook in the sausage grease until soft. Add potatoes.

Add sausage back into pot and pour in one bottle of beer. Simmer 5-7 minutes, letting the alcohol cook out.

Stir and add chicken broth. Simmer for 10 minutes, letting liquid reduce a little more.

Reduce heat, add remaining veggies and simmer for 10 minutes.

Add cheese soup and heavy cream, simmer until potatoes are tender and serve.
