Directions

Saute onions along with sausage in a large stock pot (use turkey or chicken sausage or kielbasa to lower the calories, but this recipe is regular pork sausage because it's been in my freezer forever and I needed to get rid of it). Break the sausage into bite size chunks as it browns. Add garlic and red peper flakes. Add the rest of the ingredients up to and including the beans. Heat until almost boiling and then add Kale/spinach. Cover and heat about 5 more minutes until Kale is tender (spinach is faster really only need about 2 minutes). Season with Italian herbs to taste. Serve with 1/2 TBSP grated parm. cheese. Makes 16 1 cup servings.

Beth's Easy Tomato Soup

Beth doesn't share recipes. She's 'one of those' cooks! ;-) So feel privileged, 'cause here's one she kindly shared! :) (NOTE: Beth's original recipe did not have the basil or pepper, it had one less tbsp. onion, and it had an extra tbsp. of sugar. I modified the recipe for my tastes.) 2007-11-13 EDIT: I made this again, adding 4 cloves of minced garlic, and it was delish! (((NOT included in the nutritional information, but it wouldn't really affect the calories anyway!))) :)Submitted by: CURVES_N_CURLS
