    7 oz. turkey kielbasa (1 link or 1/2 package), sliced
    3 tbsp. olive oil
    1 c. sliced fresh mushrooms
    2-lb. butternut squash, peeled and cubed
    2 cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
    1 can whole kernel yellow corn, drained

Directions

In large skillet, heat olive oil. Add onions, red pepper, and sausage; saute until vegetables are nearly translucent, then add mushrooms and squash. Continue cooking until all vegetables, except squash, are tender. Add skillet mixture, beans, corn, tomatoes (undrained), chicken breast (undrained), broth, and spices in large stock pot or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered 1-2 hours until vegetables are done. May also be cooked in crockpot (DO saute sausage and vegetables as above for better flavor) on low for 6 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
