    I'm probably going to make this sometime. It's not for the crock pot but you could just throw all the ingredients in the crock pot instead.

    INGREDIENTS:
    1 teaspoon canola oil (I'd rather use olive oil)
    1/2 lb turkey kielbasa, low-fat, thinly sliced
    2 small carrots, chopped
    1 celery, chopped
    1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
    4 cups chicken broth, reduced sodium
    15 ounces black beans, rinsed & drained
    1/2 teaspoon oregano
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, squeezed and dry


    DIRECTIONS:

    1 Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over med-high heat.

    2 Cook kielbasa until lightly browned.

    3 Add all remaining ingredients except spinach; bring to a boil.

    4 Reduce heat and simmer about 10 min, until vegetables are tender.

    5 Add spinach and cook until heated through.



    I've never made it before I just found this online. I had black bean soup with kielbasa sausage in it at my cousins house and it was really good. I've been meaning to try and make it but I forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me lol.
