Sausage and White Bean Stew (Weight Watchers) image

This is the first Weight Watchers recipe I've used, and, boy, am I glad I did! The stew is SO tasty and easy. Even better, the recipe can be modified according to what you have on hand. For instance, I used spinach instead of broccoli rabe and a small white onion since in the place of the red, and instead of the Italian sausage, I used kielbasa. I also added lots of red pepper flakes and some cayenne, too. So have fun with this recipe! I can hardly wait to hear what you think of it.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lb Italian turkey sausage, casing removed
1 red onion, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves, crumbled
salt, to taste (use seasoned salt if you like)
black pepper, to taste
1 bunch spinach or 1 bunch kale
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can white beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • In a stockpot or large nonstick skillet, heat the oil.
  • Crumble the sausage into the skillet, and cook, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 8 minutes. (NOTE: If you're using kielbasa, just saute briefly until it browns).
  • Add the onion, garlic, basil, salt, and pepper, stirring as needed, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the broccoli rabe, tomatoes and beans; cook until the broccoli rabe is wilted, about five minutes. (If you're using fresh spinach, it will wilt! I promise.
  • Just cover it with the bean and sausage mixture and let it cook for about 5 minutes).
  • Top with cheese if desired and serve.

This stew is a great comfort food. It's so hearty and flavorful. I love the combination of the sausage and white beans. It's also a great way to use up leftover sausage. I will definitely be making this again.

I love this stew! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually add a bit of extra vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and potatoes. It's also great for a crowd, as it can be easily doubled or tripled.
