Kielbasa Pepper Soup

This is a lazy one pot meal.  I was tired from work and just basically threw everything that I had into the pot to make a hearty soup. Good thing I had some kielbasa in the fridge. I always have Latin blend frozen vegetables, canned tomatoes, bell peppers and chicken stock.  Those are my staples and they have saved many nights when I do not feel like fast food and do not feel like going out to the grocery store. I have my many lazy moments and these things have saved me from a peanut butter sandwich for dinner.

The only thing that you really need to do is chop the kielbasa and bell peppers. Add whatever you want to the pot. Sometimes I add canned tomatoes, but I didn't feel like the tartness of the tomatoes.

Ingredients

• 1 link of kielbasa
• 1 cup of Krasdale Latin Blend Frozen Vegetables
• 1/4 cup bell red pepper, diced
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• salt and pepper to taste

Direction

Add everything to the pot and boil for 40 minutes.

I usually brown the sausage and add them after the soup is done.  Like I said, I was being lazy and did not feel like cooking so I just dumped everything and boil.

*The Latin Blend frozen veggies are basically frozen corn, onion, black beans, red and green peppers.  You can use frozen vegetables and canned black beans or whatever beans you like.
