Cheesy Chorizo Soup

When we processed our hogs we got quite a bit of Chorizo sausage. I made a dish the other night with a pack but only used 2 so that left me with 2. I have been on a soup craze for the last week and tonight's creation may have trumped them all! Hubby could not get enough of it. Super simple but oh so good!

Cheesy Chorizo soup

1/2 lb chorizo sausage, casings removed
1/2 large onion
2 cloves garlic
5-6 medium yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced
5 cups chicken broth
4 oz. cream cheese
8 oz. colby jack cheese, grated
salt and pepper to taste

Place chorizo in a pan and fry while braking it up with a spoon. Drain well. Add onion and garlic and cook about 5 more minutes. Add potatoes and chicken stock and simmer until potatoes are tender. Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese. Slowly stirring to melt. Add shredded cheese allowing to melt. Enjoy!
