Venison Chorizo Pizza
December 3rd, 2010 | 
Author: Venison sausage is wonderful on pizza. I thought I’d give a traditional sausage pizza a Tex-Mex twist using my homemade venison chorizo. The result was a delightful cross between nachos and pizza.

Spicy Venison Sausage Soup
Chorizo is one of my favorite types of venison sausage. And venison chorizo has so many uses! This soup is a very easy recipe to pull together on a cold, rainy night. From start to finish it takes about 1/2 hour. Serve the sausage soup with tortilla chips and, if it’s too spicy, sour cream. If you don’t have any homemade venison chorizo on hand, you can use any chorizo.

Summary: a spicy and flavorful Tex-Mex soup.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup corn meal
- 2 tbs water

- ½ pound ground turkey

- 1 tbs oil

- 2 to 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
- 1 tbs adobo sauce
- 9 cups venison stock
- 4 large plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/2 tsp salt juice of
- 1 lime
Instructions
- Mix corn meal and water in a mixing bowl. Add the chorizo, turkey, and egg and mix thoroughly.
