Ingredients
-
1 medium onion, chopped
1 large carrot, peeled or scrubbed, chopped
1 stalk of celery, sliced
2 large cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 medium potato, peeled, diced
2 cups beef or chicken broth
1 28 oz tin, diced tomatoes
4-6 oz lean kielbasa sausage, cubed
1 19oz tin black beans, or your favorite canned beans
Directions
1. Heat large pot with low fat cooking spray. Add onion, carrot and celery; cook and stir over medium heat until vegetables begin to soften.
2. Stir in garlic, oregano, potato, broth and tomatoes; heat to boiling. Stir in Kielbasa. Cover and simmer gently for at least 1/2 hour to blend flavours.
3. Drain and rinse beans. Add to soup. Heat until hot. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with crusty bread. (Even better the next day)
** We love this soup. You can prepare it ahead for a gathering and instead of simmering for 1/2 hour, put it in your crockpot on low and add the beans. By the time you are ready to eat (try to make it at least a half an hour) it will be ready to go. Great for potluck as it only gets better the longer it sits.

I made this a few nights ago and it was AMAZING!!! And it's great that it makes loads of leftovers and they taste even better the next day! I will definitely be making this one again. Thanks for the great recipe!
Tip: Use more than 1 potato and type of bean & no salt, the kielbasa is salty enough - 10/24/08

Added an extra potato since canned black beans usually come in only 15 oz cans. Used a turkey smoked sausage and added chili powder and a bit of crushed red pepper to make up for the zest the kielbasa would offer. The sausage soaked the spices up great! Topped with a dollop of light sour cream. - 11/21/10

Excellent! Very easy to prepare and very flavorful. Used chicken broth, substituted al fresco (brand) Smoked Andouille Chicken Sausage for the kielbasa. Used 1 14 oz can regular diced tomatoes and 1 can fire roasted tomatoes, which gave it a rich flavor. Added an additional can of northern beans. - 1/18/16

This soup is excellent, but I made a few changes to the recipe.I used 3 carrots, 3 stalks of celery, 6 potatoes and doubled the broth. I also used Italian seasoning instead of oregano and threw it all in the crock pot (after sauting the carrots, celery and onion in a little EVOO). Will make again. - 1/20/15
