Robust soup with carrots, celery and bell pepper.

Ingredients

• 1 tsp canola oil
• 1/2 pound low-fat turkey kielbasa, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 2 small carrots, chopped
• 1 celery stalk, chopped
• 1/2 Red Bell Pepper, chopped
• 4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 1 (15oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 (10oz) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat the oil in a large nonstick pot or nonstick Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.

2. Add all the remaining ingredients except the spinach; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes longer.
