SUPER EASY KIELBASA BEAN SOUP



Super Easy Kielbasa Bean Soup image

The subtle flavor of vinegar in the beans adds a special flavor note to this soup. What a wonderful soup for a cool winter night! Serve it with a nice salad or a warm slice of cornbread. Yum!

Provided by Jen Lobb

Categories     Other Soups

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pkg kielbasa, smoked or polish sausage (if you want a healthier version, its fine to use turkey sausage-i do!)
1 medium onion, quartered and sliced thin
3 cans beans- any kind will do...a mix is even better (i like black eyed peas, small butter beans and either pinto or northern beans)
1 Tbsp brown or spicy mustard
1/2 to 1 Tbsp cider vinegar (to taste-to give it a little tang)
montreal steak seasoning...or salt,pepper and a little garlic powder

Steps:

  • 1. slice sausage links in half lengthwise then cut into 1/2 inch chunks
  • 2. slice onion as indicated in ingredient list
  • 3. spray either crockpot or medium to large saucepan or soup pot with cooking spray; add sausage and onion
  • 4. pour in the beans, liquid included; add vinegar and mustard- stir to combine (if this is too sour, you can add a tiny bit of sugar to take the edge off); stir in Montreal or other seasonings
  • 5. add just a bit of water to make more 'stew' like but not like a brothy soup- just enough to separate the ingredients a little bit- DO NOT cover the mixture with water
  • 6. turn crockpot on (low if you'll be gone all day, high if you need it in a couple hours) or cook on stove-once it gets to a boiling point, turn heat down and let simmer until flavors blend...re-season to taste
  • 7. ** if you prefer a thicker stock once its done cooking, add a bit of cornstarch/water or use Wondra/gravy flour to thicken....Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Soaking the lima beans overnight: This helps to reduce the cooking time and makes the beans more digestible.
  • Using a variety of vegetables: This adds flavor, color, and nutrients to the soup.
  • Using low-sodium kielbasa: This helps to keep the soup from being too salty.
  • Adding a bay leaf: This adds a subtle flavor to the soup.
  • Simmering the soup for at least 30 minutes: This allows the flavors to meld together.
  • Seasoning the soup to taste: This may include adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other spices.
  • Serving the soup with a side of bread or crackers: This helps to soak up the broth.

Conclusion:

Lima bean and kielbasa soup is a hearty, flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. This soup is a great way to use up leftover lima beans and kielbasa, and it is also a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins.
