ingredients
- 340.19 g Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed
- 354.88 ml onions, chopped
- 10 garlic cloves, sliced
- 7.39 ml fennel seeds, crushed
- 2 (850.48 g) can black beans
- 411.06 g beef broth
- kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
- 0.25 ml ground red pepper
- 59.14 ml light sour cream
- 2 (822.13 g) can diced tomatoes, drained
- 29.58 ml fresh oregano, coarsely chopped
directions
- Add 1-2 TBSP oil to pan. Brown sausage with onions and garlic. (If you do not have fresh oregano, add 1-2 tsp dried oregano in this step.).
- Stir in black beans (undrained), broth and crushed fennel seed. ( I crush seeds with a mortar and pestle or in the spice grinder.).
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cover.
- Simmer 15-20 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Stir in tomatoes and oregano and heat thoroughly.
- Combine red pepper and sour cream.
- Top each bowl with a dollop of spiced sour cream.
- Notes- I use low fat/ low sodium beef broth. Fire roasted diced tomatoes or Rotel tomatoes work wonderfully. I add the tomatoes at the end because I find they break down too much otherwise, if you like your tomatoes more broken down add them with the beans.
