Total time: 20 mins
Ingredients
  • 1 32 oz carton of French Onion Soup (or 2 14.5 oz cans beef broth)
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • ½ of 1 lb chubb of hot breakfast sausage
  • 1 tbsp beef bouillon
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup diced medium-hot green chiles
  • Optional: Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
  1. Cut onion into thin slices and quarter each slice, making about 2-inch strips of onion.
  2. Brown the sausage in a medium pot, breaking it up into small chunks. Drain the fat off, leaving about 2 tbsp in the skillet to cook the onions in. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. Fry the onions in the 2 tbsp fat over medium heat until soft and starting to brown. Add the cooked sausage back in and pour the French Onion Soup (or beef broth) in.
  4. Stir well and add in the beef bouillon and vinegar; you may want to add a bit of each and taste as you go if you want it on the mild side.
  5. Stir in the green chiles, simmer for a few minutes and serve.
  6. Optional: top with shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese.
