Categories     Poultry

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces turkey sausage, sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 (15 ounce) can chicken broth, fat free
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 chipotle pepper, minced
1/4 teaspoon cumin
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Spray a soup pan with cooking spray and bring up to medium high heat. Add onions and cook for about 2 minutes. Add the sausage and cook for another two minutes. Add the bell pepper and garlic. Cook an additional 2 minutes.
  • Add the broth, cumin, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add chipotle and beans. Cook covered for about 10 minutes.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve with a sprinkle of Cilantro or some fat free sour cream.
  • **Variation Idea: I have tried this as a smooth soup -- brown off the turkey in a separate pan, following all of the other directions up until the point the beans are added. I use a hand held blender to blend up the soup. Afterwards I add the turkey and some additional beans to give a little texture.

SPICY BEANS WITH TURKEY SAUSAGE

Here's a jambalaya-type dish that comes together in the slow cooker. It's a wonderful way to warm up cold winter nights and works equally well for casual get-togethers or family dinners. For extra pizzazz, top with sour cream or shredded cheese, or try it with a loaf of crusty bread. -Dorothy Jordan, College Station, Texas

  • Season well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of spices and herbs to your dish. This will help to bring out the flavors of the ingredients and create a more flavorful meal.

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your dish a better flavor and texture than frozen or canned vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The flavors will be at their best when the dish is hot and fresh.
