Directions:
Combine soup mix with 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese and 4 cups milk (whole, low fat, 2%, skim, or non-fat powdered dry milk) or 3 cups milk and 1 cup beer.  Bring to a boil on medium heat while stirring constantly.  Reduce heat to simmer and continue cooking until thickened, 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Thin with milk if soup becomes too thick.  If desired, 1 lb. browned breakfast sausage may be added.  Serve over tortilla chips or crush chips into soup.
