Turnip Green, White Bean, & Sausage Soup
Ingredients
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 pound kielbasa sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
5 cups chicken broth
2 (27-ounce) cans turnip greens, drained
2 (14.5-ounce) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 package vegetable soup mix
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch Creole seasoning, or to taste
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add kielbasa and onion; cook and stir until kielbasa is browned and onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate.
2. Add broth, turnip greens, beans, soup mix, hot pepper sauce, garlic powder, Creole seasoning, salt, and pepper to the saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Return kielbasa and onion mixture to the saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 2 hours.
Recipe Tip:
Sometimes, I prepare Steps 2 and 3 in a slow cooker on Low for 4 to 5 hours.
