Lima Bean And Kielbasa Soup Crock Pot Recipes

Steps:

• 1. slice sausage links in half lengthwise then cut into 1/2 inch chunks
• 2. slice onion as indicated in ingredient list
• 3. spray either crockpot or medium to large saucepan or soup pot with cooking spray; add sausage and onion
• 4. pour in the beans, liquid included; add vinegar and mustard- stir to combine (if this is too sour, you can add a tiny bit of sugar to take the edge off); stir in Montreal or other seasonings
• 5. add just a bit of water to make more 'stew' like but not like a brothy soup- just enough to separate the ingredients a little bit- DO NOT cover the mixture with water
• 6. turn crockpot on (low if you'll be gone all day, high if you need it in a couple hours) or cook on stove-once it gets to a boiling point, turn heat down and let simmer until flavors blend...re-season to taste
• 7. ** if you prefer a thicker stock once its done cooking, add a bit of cornstarch/water or use Wondra/gravy flour to thicken....Enjoy!
