How to Make Succotash Sausage Soup

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of Italian sausage (removed from casings), 2 leeks (sliced), 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 1 red bell pepper (chopped).
  3. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and the sausage is browned, about 6-8 minutes.

  8. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
  9. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the lima beans are tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  10. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of cream-style corn and 1 cup of frozen corn kernels.
  11. Simmer for another 10 minutes.
  12. Stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream.
