This may sound like an unusual combination of flavors, but trust me when I say this will soon become a family favorite. Though it has but six ingredients, and requires a mere 20 minutes to prepare, it will taste like you’ve been cooking all day. The salsa is one of my favorite stealth ingredients for quick meals: the cooked peppers, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and chipotle deliver tremendous flavor in one fell swoop.
1 1-pound package bulk sage sausage
1 15-ounce can white beans, drained
1 and 1/2 cups canned solid pack pumpkin (unsweetened)
1 cup chunky-style chipotle salsa
1 12-ounce bottle dark beer
1 cup crumbled goat cheese (about 3 ounces)
In a large saucepan cook sausage over medium heat until sausage is brown and no pink remains, stirring to break up meat; drain fat. Stir in drained beans, pumpkin, salsa and beer. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
Simmer, partially covered, for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Ladle into bowls and top each serving with goat cheese. Makes 4 servings.
