Sausage, Black Bean, Sweet Potato Soup

This delicious Sausage, Black Bean, and Sweet Potato Soup from Julie Van Rosendaal of www.dinnerwithjulie.com is a terrific soup that is a meal in itself! It comes together in minutes and makes a great last minute dinner.

Serves 4-6.

Ingredients:

a drizzle of canola or olive oil
1-2 lean Italian sausages
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and diced
1 19 oz. (540 mL) can black beans, drained
1 tsp. cumin
1 L chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup salsa or a big spoonful of tomato paste

STEP#1
In a large soup pot, heat a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Squeeze the sausage out of its casing into the pot and cook it, breaking it up as you stir it around, until itâ€™s no longer pink.

STEP#2
Add the jalapeno pepper, cook for a minute, then the sweet potato, beans, cumin, stock and salsa, plus a cup of water - more if you think it needs it, or if you like your soup brothy.

STEP#3
Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat and simmer for about half an hour, until the potatoes are tender and the broth has thickened a bit.

This sounds like a tasty combination. Love the black beans and sweet potatoes! And love that Julie made it for her dad "while at the cabin". Sounds rustic and inspiring.
